I gave it a 4 but one of those stars was out of respect for the author's glorious oeuvre - an author unknown to me would have gotten 3.
Way way too much telling and not showing. This is the first of the author's stories that is in the third person (that I've read, anyway) and it drags. Her ability to use the first person makes her stories much more real and thus more entertaining
