I think this is one I'm going to have to try, especially since I'm such a huge fan of the genre!

I'm one of those bloggers who were disappointed with this one -- it could have been much, much better.

I think I just loved the original Agatha Christie mystery so much that I had too high of expectations. <br /><br />I do like mysteries where it is hard to figure out who the killer is and I do like books that provoke that kind of feeling where you can't read it at night like The Diviners(though I am not a fan of horror). <br /><br />Christina Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07756342293865115352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7877379041758656043.post-41736470261586425082013-01-03T20:17:30.654-08:002013-01-03T20:17:30.654-08:00I totally agree with you about this book, I defini...I totally agree with you about this book, I definitely think it was meant to be shorter and less emotional, but very action packed and creepy! I read this one at night as well, and there are very few things that can scare me. Even I had to put this one down around 1 AM and pick it up in the morning! It was just too creepy to read at night, and that's coming from somebody who doesn't get scared easily. <br /><br />I really do agree about how things were too convenient and how the romance developed too quickly. The mystery surprised me as well! I'm glad that the author was able to make me guess incorrectly.<br /><br />Fantastic review! <3Aneeqahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13352395407424623520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7877379041758656043.post-15453669436051986492013-01-03T19:39:32.875-08:002013-01-03T19:39:32.875-08:00Definitely not a book to read late at night; I sta...Definitely not a book to read late at night; I started reading it when I was home alone and had to put it off until people were back in the house.The Insouciant Sophisticatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03934853089105345052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7877379041758656043.post-10434167359197138362013-01-03T19:20:30.651-08:002013-01-03T19:20:30.651-08:00I really enjoyed this one, but felt it was a littl...I really enjoyed this one, but felt it was a little short. I'd have liked to spend more time with the main characters. Also, McNeil didn't pull any punches with her ending. She went all out, that's fer sure.Rubitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14929614007516530129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7877379041758656043.post-77946171766667105302013-01-03T19:01:41.013-08:002013-01-03T19:01:41.013-08:00I'm glad to hear another good review of this o...I'm glad to hear another good review of this one!

I'm glad you really enjoyed this one and that it differs slightly from the normal horror book! It's a pity that the characters and romance aren't as developed as you would have liked though. :(<br /><br />And I have a creaky house too. So not fun when you're reading a scary book! I usually make my dog guard me. ;) xxrachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06854981045465233724noreply@blogger.com
