Rating: - No time for anything else....
I couldn't put this book down. I really had no time for anything else whilst reading this.

A bit of a poor end to the story but a great read up till then. A real thought provoking plot with the story told from the husband's point of view, which made a nice change to the usual third person narration.

Highly recommended read chosen by Richard & Judy.

Rating: - Schmaltzy Ending.
No Time For Goodbye

I have to say, I enjoyed this book immensly as a page-turning sun-bed read. My only real critisism is the last page. What a load of rubbish.

>Obvious plot explanations in character dialogue...etc

This could be forgiven if you cared about the characters, or even what happens, sadly however, this is not the case.

The opening chapters get off to a great start, sadly followed by too much character explanation of emotions that have no real depth and frankly become less believable as time goes on, inevidably half way through not only do you know how it's all going to end, you can't help but feel you are immersed in a screenplay for a TV movie. As crime thillers go... this is pretty disappointing.

Rating: - A great idea poorly executed
Most books have a beginning, a middle and an end. The high point of this novel turned out to be the beginning, which of course expanded on the intriguing premise of the story: a teenage girl wakes up to find her parents and brother missing, and like most readers (I assume) I wondered what on earth was going on. Then there was 'the middle', which in a nutshell was much too long because after perhaps 300 pages I was none the wiser as to the reasons behind the family's disappearance and apart from the ...
