Thanks for this review and for being so honest about what did and didn't work for you in this one. I feel like I can now go into these with my eyes open.Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443338685890187334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2515870701545336410.post-79518388983416879632011-12-02T12:29:49.589-05:002011-12-02T12:29:49.589-05:00I can see how the plot could be viewed as implausi...I can see how the plot could be viewed as implausible. I was so captivated by the story though that I didn't pay attention to that. This reminded me a lot of The Secret History, by Donna Tartt.

The Likeness seems to be a favourite - your review reminds me of AGatha Christie's And Then There Were None in a way. <br /><br />I love the sound of the characters.Marcehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10136238772526246675noreply@blogger.com
