As soon as my mother and her book club are done with this, she’ll be giving it to me. My mother says it’s excellent.

I can’t imagine what it would be like as a parent to have to deal with something like that ~ wanting to have absolute faith in your child but being faced with contrary logic and evidence. Thankfully, my kitty cat will never put me to the test. Another perspicacious review, PCN ~ thanks, as always!

Heard about this and what I have been hearing is people are polarized in their opinions. I like controversy as much as anyone. Maybe I’ll check it out before Lifetime makes a movie out of it.

I started reading it recently, but I keep getting bogged down my the character of Andy and his meandering superfluous narrative. It’s as though the guy has ADD or something. Love the trial scenes, but this book needed another pass by the editor.

I can’t get over how some reviews and PR blurbs have so callously given away the ending with their comparison to that other book. It makes me not want to finish now that I know the ending. Thanks for having the kindness of not revealing it here.

I read this…it left me wanting to know more, especially about the second situation. I don’t know to which which legal thriller it was compared???? Tell me later! I did enjoy it, but I wanted/needed some answers.
