Knife Music [With Earbuds] (2010) - Plot & Excerpts
Sometimes I don't know how books get on my reader. I have literally hundreds of books on my reader to choose from, and I'm constantly adding more. At some point, I added Knife Music based on a recommendation.The cover is a detractor. Thank god I have an e-reader or I'd never carry this book around. It looks like some cheesy tween novel. But once I cracked it open, it drew me in immediately. The plot is engaging, and you are concerned about the main characters - which to me is a the recipe for a good book. However, the ended was anti-climactic. All in all, this is a good read, but I'd keep it in the "beach book" category. This is one of those books I feel kind of guilty about. I stuck with it to the end and enjoyed parts of it very much but I did not pay close attention. I had never read any Carnoy before. Had I bought this book, I would have been far more disappointed but, I borrowed it from the library and it was not a total waste of time. Grown men and young girls and rape or maybe not. I think really I did not like or respect any of the characters. But it was not a total loss.

This book had many twists and turns. Good book. Had to read to the end to figure out who did it.

This was the first book I've read by David Carnoy. It was very good, with a surprise ending.
