I do have this one to read and I'm looking forward to it. I'm curiuos what I'll think of it. I don't think it has to do with not being your typical genre - I think it's just sometimes a book will hit us the wring way.Darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15387389557243960084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8524582297249728998.post-10215421119227359252011-07-21T11:09:36.174-04:002011-07-21T11:09:36.174-04:00Hi Kaye!

I am sorry that you didn't like it more. Did you read the other one? You might like it better.<br /><br />I love the whole penguin thing you got going.

It's hard to gripe abou it without giving up spoilers so I won't. For the most part, it was one of the best thriller I've read in awhile. Plenty of twists and turns and you have to be very involved to keep up.Nahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06975459094094828798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8524582297249728998.post-85408325891613000522011-07-19T13:28:44.220-04:002011-07-19T13:28:44.220-04:00Hm, now I'm very curious about the ending.Hm, now I'm very curious about the ending.bermudaonionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10726401178972099557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8524582297249728998.post-62838696810649913772011-07-19T11:08:00.649-04:002011-07-19T11:08:00.649-04:00a 2...oh my.

I think it sounds pretty interesting, and the fact that it has a somewhat open ending also intrigues me. I am sorry to hear that it wasn't a perfect read for you though I would be interested in discussing it when I get done!Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443338685890187334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8524582297249728998.post-5638775979202247722011-07-19T09:08:39.730-04:002011-07-19T09:08:39.730-04:00I kind of loved it, kind of.

Either it's the mythology is true and those things do exist or the mother was right and it was all a big lie and some really bought into it.Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17786139533776263328noreply@blogger.com
