I'm glad you connected with Annie, because there will be a lot more of Annie in the next book in the series.

I did not...I think that was partially my thing too. I did not expect to like the book, as I had issues with the first Annie Ogden "MYSTERY" I went into thinking, much like you did, it was one genre, specifically a mystery, and I was disappointed. What I was not disappointed with was the obvious talent. I think this is what makes reading indie so much fun. To see an author grow. The differences between the two books are extreme. I saw it as a book about obsession, and as Emlyn mentioned she had not seen that before. PLUS I am a foodie at heart so I enjoyed seeing it from that perspective.<br /><br />I actually agree on the guy being sick, I wonder if that was started with something else in mind and perhaps should have been left in but without him coughing up blood as a way to point out another thing horrible about Larry's abuse and lack of caring or concern, it did not tie in to the book and made me think perhaps ... as in perhaps a lot of reasons why it was there.<br /><br />Good review, I am so scared of putting reviews up about books I do not like, but the point is NOT that the book is bad but why we did not like it right?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13458593427654459473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7169060896643353995.post-62081402261994041342012-06-15T13:18:54.229-07:002012-06-15T13:18:54.229-07:00Thanks for sharing your review, Lisa. Sometimes it...Thanks for sharing your review, Lisa. Sometimes it's helpful to hear from people who don't like a book to give the reader a fuller picture. My experience was kind of the opposite of yours. I really didn't expect to like the book even though I knew it was well-written. See, I--gasp--don't like zombies, so there relative absence for much of the story was a gigantic plus for me. I also related to Candance since she and I have a few commonalities in our personal lives. Well, thank you for giving it a read and a chance and sharing your thoughts. And thank you for joining this tour!<br /><br />Emlyn :-DEmlyn Chandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814483750873404256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7169060896643353995.post-43560781017867328692012-06-15T08:04:10.477-07:002012-06-15T08:04:10.477-07:00I feel like I am in the minority because I didn...I feel like I am in the minority because I didn't like the book.H.
