4.5 stars. Even though there was little to surprise, the journey is everything - especially when Imogen Church is reading the tale. Ruth Ware is often aligned with psychological suspense contemporaries such as Paula Hawkins and Gilly Macmillan, but sh ...more |

3.5 stars. I didn't love this as much as I'd hoped, but I liked it more than I realized. The first chapter, especially the opening scene, is perfection. Oddball and wonderful, queuing up for a ride that I had no idea where it might go, the discovery o ...more |

“I have a strange feeling with regard to you. As if I had a string somewhere under my left ribs, tightly knotted to a similar string in you. And if you were to leave I'm afraid that cord of communion would snap. And I have a notion that I'd take to bleeding inwardly. As for you, you'd forget me.”

“When you read a great book, you don’t escape from life, you plunge deeper into it. There may be a superficial escape – into different countries, mores, speech patterns – but what you are essentially doing is furthering your understanding of life’s subtleties, paradoxes, joys, pains and truths.
