Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. a really fucking boring tale of heteronormative crap that has no point. ( ) SPOILERS!!! Don't read this book. I read this really wanting something to happen in it. It was a lot of build up with no punch, other than what I think should never happen in any movie I watch or book I read. The dog dies. NO NO NO NO NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And it freaking takes the dog dying for one of them to realize something. UGH NOOOOOO. I hate this book. I gave it two stars because it does have excellent prose and writing, but the storyline - a big fat NO! A marriage in trouble, a long car trip with destructive storms along the way, a dog that requires looking after - it added up to a fairly short, but claustrophobic read. It reminded me of "Deliverance" on land. The couple, in their own minds anyway, seem to resolve their problems and all because of an incident near the end that was very upsetting to me as a reader. I have mixed feelings about this book. I generally like dark stories like this, but I didn't care for the ending. Listened to the Audible version. The narration was smooth and the characters believable. A troubled marriage and a long car ride are probably not a good mix but somewhere among the trip's events the wife comes to terms with a violent assault that had been plaguing her. Not sure I really cared for the husband. His character while necessary to the story was an annoyance. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Mark and Maggie's annual drive east to visit family has gotten off to a rocky start. By the time they're on the road, it's late, a storm is brewing, and they are no longer speaking to one another. Adding to the stress, Maggie - recently mugged at gunpoint - is lately not herself, and Mark is at a loss about what to make of the stranger he calls his wife. Forced to stop for the night at a remote inn, completely without power, Maggie's paranoia reaches an all-time and terrifying high. But when Mark finds himself threatened in a dark parking lot, it's Maggie who takes control. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
