1- The character reminds me is the murder. it reminds me about the story that happen near my house. This is a family that have 4 people. One day, the older son saw the younger son went with his lover. He got mad and they had big discussion. After that, the brother killed his younger brother. His father saw it so he also kill his father, and mother, too. This is sad story and i'm afraid when i go pass to this house.

14- The author wrote the book because she wants to send message for the readers. Nowadays, many people who have spouse are cheating and they think it's ok. They think that they meet someone not only their spouse to relax and find someone to talk or to have a cup of coffee. She wants to warn them that may be their spouse know but they don't tell them.


12- I confused about the death of Alex Forley. maybe, Mrs. Crowther can be the murder or her husband can be. Their action seems hidding something and they scare people around them will know the truth. Moreover, Forley could be died because of he was rich. He had everything and nice girlfriend, he couldn't suicide.

11- If I could wish what happen next for the story, I wish they can find the murder, and the murder who is one of them. I think the murder will be one of them but i don't know who so I wish they can find and solve the problem between the murder and Forley.

I reread it after 10-ish years. It was assigned to us and I remembered liking it. Seems I still do. Cute little storyline, understandable conundrums.

[Marisol Ulloa]

A good short novel, interesting and well put together for few pages long.

[Pascal]

A very interesting book;)

[DutchGirlReads]

It was alright, but I was not blown away by the storyline. I liked that the ending was tied together and that it has a closed end.

The Best Cambridge book ever!
I've learnt how to use so many words...

P.S.
Can someone remind me the name of the couple, who were friends to Mr. Forley and
his girlfriend?
Thanx :)

moderate plot and character coz it's short so i wish some area could be expanded a little bit more for example on the diary content but of course its good for beginner reader.
