Mehso-so

So I am a Kate Morton faithful and always will be. However, this was an odd one and probably my least favorite by her. The writing is amazing in parts but I felt it was much slower to develop and the various stories seemed quite disjointed until the very end. While I wanted to know what happened, the bringing together of the storylines in the end just wasn‘t satisfying enough to resolve the confusion I felt for the duration.

TheBookHippie I loathed this one 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️😬 11h
annahenke @TheBookHippie haha can‘t blame you. This was just a so-so for me. But very real criticisms. It was way too slow and disjointed. 11h
TheBookHippie @annahenke SO disjointed! If I remember correctly there was easily look up history that was false as well. It‘s been awhile I read it when it came out. 11h

annahenke @TheBookHippie yeah I kept putting it off because it didn‘t grip. In the end, I finished it. But it was a let down compared to some of her better stuff 11h
TheBookHippie @annahenke I‘m not sure what happened to her writing in this one- but I feel this she was just not into it. This is by far not a genre I read, but I‘ve enjoyed some of her other books reading them for bookclubs. 11h
annahenke @TheBookHippie yeah I‘m a big fan of some of her others. This is the weakest link! 11h

4⭐. Good advertisement for abstinence. Brings out all the realities of childbirth plus some.

We listened to John Scalzi on our trip to the beach. I switched to The Queens of Crime for my #audiowalk, and then I sat, relaxed, and read The Long Walk. This is my favorite type of weather. ❤️

Joining my voice to the choir singing this historical fiction book‘s praises. Sixty percent in and loving all the quirky, found family vibes of this boarding house of women circa 1950‘s DC. It‘s making me need to go watch A League of Their Own (maybe Fried Green Tomatoes) too⚾️😭💗

I had this on my tbr for a while and needed exactly this kind of story, and I wasn't disappointed. I even stopped on the side of the road to grab a coffee and get back to the book. The ending was exactly as it needed to be instead of tied up with a pink bow. I will be reading more from this author.
