This book is going to constantly have you thinking. You have to remember details and question everything. Overall, I'm still unsure if I enjoyed it. I'm leaning towards not really. That being said, I am still passing on the book to others so I do believe its worth the read. I also think it could be ...

First, I need to say that I bought this as an e-book months ago and just got around to reading it now. So, instead of looking up the book and finding out what it was about, I just looked at the cover. I've done this before and sometimes it works out great and sometimes not so great. In this case, ...

I have had this one on my TBR pile for a while. I finally got it on audio. I only made it through the first 2 discs. I can't really pinpoint what made me stop listening. It was jsut dull. I didn't like the way the story waffled between then and now. I also felt like there was too much inner re...

This book had me up til 3.15 this morning, couldn't put it down. So many twists at the end it was hard to keep track, especially with the flitting between 15 years ago and present time. While this certainly wasn't one of the best written books I've ever read, and it had me more confused than confuse...

Kept me guessing all through the book. Seemed very dragged out at times, but then the ending seemed rushed and thrown together.

An enjoyable thriller that's an involving and easy read throughout. I had growing problems with the plot, but the book resolved those in its final pages. Creepy, and an especially good read if you're sleep deprived due to McMahon's clear prose. If I had to classify it, I'd have to give it its own...

This is a book that serves its purpose well. It will suck you in from the first page. It's well written, haunting, filled with twists and turns and isn't altogether predictable. (Though for me, much of it was). HOWEVER... no one warned me, so I will warn every new mother (or any other person who...

My Never Ending List
My Never Ending List rated it 13 years ago
I didn't like the idea of alternating chapters in this book. For me, It didn't work well for this type of suspense as I was reading the drama that set up the story 15 years ago and then the next chapter I was reading the suspense part of the story that was currently taking place throughout this book...
