Well, I read 1 1/2 chapters. I know, I should not decide so quickly, however, I just didnt want to go on. It was a library book, so no loss of money.
Why? Well, first of all the author tried to be funny/zany with a bipolar Mom with a fur coat which told of her mother's psych balance..well...it just was trying too hard to be funny. And then they meet a new character, an elderly man, who just happens to have a granddaughter with him from UK who just happens to be a child of a son he never knew..HHMMM!
So, it is over. I also returned several books I hadn't read yet. With my new MysteryNet messagfe board I joined (4mystery addicts) I was reminded of several authors I wanted to try again. I love going to the library and just wandering. I think I found some good books..but you never know.
I have discovered from the board that I am a 'splasher' meaning I like both cozy mysteries and hard-boiled or procedurals. I wonder what I am if someone really looked at what I read. Not only do I love mysteries, but I also love a good chicklit..i.e. gentle read about women and their relationships. Not romances as such, but relationships. And then I enjoy a good biography.
Well, I am off. Hopefully, I will get a lot of reading time!!
