I would honestly have to go look up more reviews on this. As a professional librarian though I know how few books get starred reviews so that is telling that this will be a good one. On the other hand, in general, when publicists make the author's name bigger on the cover of the book than the actual title of the book, this tells me they are relying on the author's fame to sell the book instead of the book itself. So that is worrisome.
