I don't think I've ever given a book one star before. I'll admit I read the first third waiting for the book to get captivating, but it never did. I completely skipped the middle third and very briefly skimmed the last third. I realized I would have been just fine not knowing "who did it." The problem with this book is that it is so predictable and set up. The characters are really annoying because their relationships with each other get really old -- I felt like I was reading the same thing over and over and over and over. This seems like the writing of a first-time writer. If anyone likes any of her other books, let me know; otherwise, I think I will move on from Kathi Oram Peterson... I liked this book a lot and the characters were great,My first book by this author and I hope to read more. I liked the goofy small town people and the locals. The dialouge was believeable and smooth and the love story was realalistic. I gave it 4 stars because I really could not put it down, it was funny and the plot thickened at the right points in the book for me. However a few things were a little distracting. The religious aspect was a little off for me, could have been great with out it and I felt it was not needed, I did not connect how it had anything to do with the story. The baggage that she had from the past and dealing with her husbands death seemed to be dealt with too easily, with that sort of past her new realationship shoud have happened slower. But over all it was a fun book and I would recommend it, Thanks Nikki!
What do You think about River Whispers (2011)?
Better than her other novels. Don't know who dunnit until the very end. Never suspected it.
