Originally I was really quite sucked into this book by the situation of Beth, driven out of her mind by her unruly, hyperactive toddler and receiving no support from her selfish and usually absent husband. So why did it go wrong and why - like another reviewer did I find myself bored and skimming pages to get to the end?The problem is really is the structure and pacing of the novel and the author's failure to heed Elmore Lenore's advice to authors to leave out the bits that 'readers usually skip'. Too much in depth perception into the thoughts of all kind of minor characters - the social workers involved with the case etc - while Beth's back story is not dealt with in enough depth. It would work much better if we only saw events from the perspective of Beth and her sons IMO, and focused on the heart of the novel which is her need to prove her innocence and get back her child. The parts involving Beth and in particular Danny are very good - they are heart warming and ring true. However interactions with police/social workers don't feel authentic - for example would 13 year old Danny REALLY be allowed to attend a case conference where a protection plan for his younger brother is being set in place? And sorry but I found it hard to accept that Beth is a very talented academic - she doesn't come across as all that bright and she is so inarticulate she doesn't even seem able to defend herself against the charges of abuse she faces. (Would any intelligent, sensitive woman actually marry selfish oaf Jacko, who seems to have no redeeming qualities whatsoever?)The final twist is pretty far fetched but sadly by that time the original focus of the novel had been lost anyway and I was past caring. There are some good ideas here and some nice bits of writing but it needs some serious editing to make it a good read. ### ⭐ Bizarre, melodramatic soap opera *by J***H on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 March 2018* This book started well, but gradually sank into an unbelievable plot filled with odd and somewhat stereotyped characters. Lots of pop psychology with almost every character having some sort of dark, unresolved secret. I got three quarters of the way through and skimmed the rest as I was so irritated. Oh dear.... ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gripping & thought provoking read *by B***C on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 May 2012* I really enjoyed this book - it's one that once you start, you can't stop and in-between reads you are thinking about the characters, wondering what will happen next. I particularly liked that none of the characters were one dimensional stereotypes, unlike many books covering these topics, where there can be a tendency to cast some characters as 'good' and others as 'bad' all the characters had rounded personalities & complexities. In particular the author really gets into the head of Danny, the young lad, in a way that is real & moving, without resorting to patronising clichés.When I think about the book & characters now I see them as clearly as if I had watched a compelling drama. I can't wait for more books from this great new talent! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/51130970-the-mood-ring-paperback-8-oct-2012](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/51130970-the-mood-ring-paperback-8-oct-2012) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
