Customer Reviews

"Kimono" doesn't hit the Mark!

I found the book totally predictable and the writing style plodding. I would recommend it more to the "Young Reader", as opposed to those of us who have been avid readers for many years. In fairness, I am a fan of Kristin Hannah and have just read "The Nightingale" for the second time... so perhaps, "Woman in the White Kimono" could not have hit the mark!
