panUgh! Drivel!
I admit that this is not my thing, but I don‘t think it‘s just a matter of personal taste. I found almost everything about it entirely unconvincing, cliched & predictable. And it was written with such seriousness, not a scrap of wit, while the characters did the stupid stuff that happens in horror movies or survived beatings like the heros of action movies. I would have bailed if I hadn‘t been reading it for book group. #ozfiction
Hooked_on_books Well that‘s a bummer. Gorgeous cover, though. 6d
Suet624 Love the pissed off nature of this review. 😂 6d
ChaoticMissAdventures I always think book club discussions are more lively when people didn't like the book 😂 6d

CarolynM @BarbaraBB That was quick! You can open it right away if you want to🙂 Switzerland at Christmas must be amazing, can‘t wait to see your photos😘 5d
CarolynM @LeahBergen @ChaoticMissAdventures Always a lively discussion when there are strong views one way or the other😆 I‘m actually really curious about how the others will respond to this one. 5d
CarolynM @squirrelbrain A very talented young friend drew the picture & printed the cards for me. Glad you like it😘 5d
CarolynM @Suet624 Thank you, I think😆 5d
CarolynM @Hooked_on_books It is, isn‘t it. There‘s some decent nature writing in it too. I think Arnott can write, but based on this and the other one of his I‘ve read, I don‘t think he‘s very good at people![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)
