A Brief Reading Hiatus

Life has gotten in the way of my reading habit! I had started reading the Angry Women Suite and halfway through I had to stop reading.  I don't understand why reviews were praising this book.  It was very hard to follow and really the plot was hard to decipher.

From there I started reading The Neighbors by Ania Ahlborn.  The book was interesting and a little different than books I've been reading.  Andrew Morrison moves away from his alcoholic mother only to find himself in the midst of an odd relationship with his neighbor Harlow.  Harlow deceives Andrew and he becomes one of her pawns in a sick and twisted game of manipulation and sex.

Although the book held my interest, I felt the writing was stunted and at times a little juvenile. But that's what I get for reading a free book on my Kindle.

Next up for me is The Round House and A Thousand White Women.

What are you reading for the new year? Let me know, I am always up for more suggestions!

Happy Holidays!

The Angry Women Suite

I've been busy and apologize for not posting sooner.  I am still reading The Angry Women Suite.  I am halfway through and really do not like this book much.  The writing is fabulous and the characters are deep, however, the constant jumping between present and past has made it very difficult to stay up with the plot line.  I also don't find it very interesting.  There have been several mentions of murder, but nothing has even gotten close to explaining what that is about.  I am almost ready to call it quits and put the book down and move on.  I RARELY stop reading a book in the middle, but I am eager to get on to some new books and blog about them.

I feel like I am missing something with Fullbright's novel.  It received rave reviews, yet I just cannot get into it.  Have you read this book? What are your thoughts?

Happy Reading!
