Maria Weston wants to be friends with me.

Maybe that had been the problem all along: Maria Weston had wanted to be friends with me, but I let her down.

She's been hovering at the edge of my consciousness for all of my adult life, although I've been good at keeping her out, just a blurred shadow in the corner of my eye, almost but not quite out of sight.

Maria Weston wants to be friends.

But Maria Weston has been dead for more than twenty-five years.

The idea is brilliant, but the reader is so bad, she colours my idea of who the main character is, and what she looks and sounds like, which is, that she is pathetic basically. And when the reader does her young girl voice, uuuurrrgh, terrible am dram.

And why doesn't the main character just pull herself together and get in the real world. No wonder her husband left her. She's weak, neurotic and feeble. And I would suggest that she has mental health problems. It's a pity because I've just listened to her other book, How to hide a dead body, and that was brilliant, and the reader for that was brilliant. It just goes to show how a reader can kill or make a book.

It seems so common lately, to have a female protagonist, who is weak, unstable, and just portrays a victim. Instead of just pulling herself together, and take some action. Lets have feisty female characters, where are they?

Great idea, terrible reader.
