My read every book we own project continues with one of Maureen's books.
The Lace Reader by Brunonia Barry
I read this because we had
it on our shelf. It's very much a women's book; men can enjoy it too,
but probably no where near as much.
** spoiler alert **
It ends with a big Sixth
Sense kind of twist. I'm not too sure how I feel about that. We really
don't get "I see dead people" like clues so it seems a bit unfair.
The ending did solve 1/2 of the mystery of who is/are Towner and Beezer's father(s)?
It is well written and executed and I did enjoy the journey. It made me really want to see Salem and the rest of New England.
As
I say, this book leaves me with mixed feelings. And if anything can
make you feel something, then the artist has done their job.
