What I Thought Of It - FIVE Observations/Reflections:
1. *It has been quite some time that I have put a complete page-turner in my hands. This was that page-turner that I needed.
2. *I enjoyed the mystery, the suspense, and all the intrigue that was contained within the pages.
3. *The plot wasn't your typical "who done it". The writing was fresh, the characters were unique, and the twists and turns were original.
4. *As I look back at the reading experience, I'm surprised I didn't see what was happening right before my eyes. That seems to happen to me a lot. I don't always see the obvious. I'm not sure what that says about me as a reader.
5. *I'm looking forward to chatting with the other members of my book club and digging into the story and getting other readers perspectives.
Who Should Read It: I can't imagine any person not enjoying this story. It really is the perfect mystery. I could see new readers enjoying it as well as the avid reader who tears through book after book. This novel published for adults is a must-read. Happy Reading!
