Very easy read,
Totally a copy of ‘Girl On a Train’, except not as well done. Do not recommend.
Similar premise of The Girl on the Train, but less exciting. I still didn’t know who, until the very end. It felt just a little anti climactic. At times I was also frustrated with the main character, at times.
Easy, quick read
Needed better editing. Lot of errors & sometimes it didn’t make sense
The girl is not a sympathetic character.
The lead character, Amber, (The Girl In The Window) was a combination of an overthinking, indecisive, insecure, lovelorn teenager and busy body neighbor. Not a great combination nor a protagonist I would follow in future books. Howevever, when Amber finally sets her mind to move forward she does so with focus. I love this author’s other writings and this was a pretty good page turner but was not her best work, IMHO. Sadly missing was the usualy Renee humor. If someone told me she didn’t actually write it, I wouldn’t be surprised.
At first, I thought the book was going to be a “Rear Window” experience, and in a way, it was. But the depiction of motives and emotion, the end of fantasy for a better reality and strength was a terrific transformation. I enjoyed everything she writes, and wonder about how someone can come up with so many different characters from so many different times, and make them all so convincing, and her books so well written.
Another well written, fast paced mystery from Renee Pawlish
Pawlish’s character development is superb. I move, live and listen with her characters, get stressed when they are distressed. The main character in this one is a lonesome, sad, obsessed person and yet one feels that she could overcome that with some help and I want to help her.
The plot in this story, as in most of her stories, leads me to think that any one of those involved in the murder is the culprit. I mentally build the case for one and then and another to be the perpetrator. In the end, Renee Pawlish surprises me and I have been caught, once again, unaware of the real murderer.
Although fast paced, simple and easy to read, her writing is never simplistic. There is much going on, and on several levels, in this story; being easy to read only enhanced my ability to climb in the character’s skin and become one with them.
If you follow Renee Pawlish’s mysteries, you will love this one. If not a regular reader of her works, you are likely to be very soon after finishing this book.
This seems to show Renee’s stamina as a writer. I just question her creation of characters. Some polarize and need editing.
