it was ok
bookshelves: everyone-loved-but-me, netgalley, read-2015

Why did I finish this book? Well, I kept hoping it would get some excitement going and would redeem itself.
It didn't.


A plane crash happens and in the aftermath four stories are supposed to tie together. The thing is the whole thing was so sloppy. The plane crash happened and the reader is just given basic information about it. I never felt a dang thing for any of the characters.
Cecilia is a flight attendant on the plane who survives. We learn that she was leaving her husband Tom and small son. She is all depressed and usually I would care what happened to her. If she were not as flat as a pancake personality wise I might have. But nothing.
Her husband Tom is an investigator looking into the death of a young women. He is about the only character in the whole dang book that had a spark of my interest but I wouldn't write home about him.
Freya's father was the pilot of the plane that crashed. She knew he kept so many secrets that her mom continually looked over. Blah, blah and double blah. Hell, I can't even work up a good rant for this boring book. I'm bored even rehashing it for a review.
I'm done.

I can't believe I made myself finish it.

Licha Sounds like a case of curiosity killed the cat, but in this case it's perseverance killed the cat. Don't worry. We're all guilty of it and then we just want to kick ourselves for sticking with it.


Melissa ♥ Dog/Wolf Lover ♥ Martin Well crap :/

Thanks Kimberly :)


Kelly (and the Book Boar) BWAHAHAHA! I have one of these types of reviews coming up whenever I can muster enough effort to puke something out. Which one of us will get told we're stupid first? Inquiring minds want to know ; )

IKR?!
I couldn't even figure out what to bitch about on this one just because it was so bland. Then I looked at all the other reviews glowing about it and thought they slipped me a different book than those people got. Mine sucked.


Kristin I've been putting this one off for a while. Seriously, two NG books almost in a row that I have as well...you are killing me...*sigh*

Kristin That should give us a clue! Seriously, really trying to request less until there are more friend reviews. Killing my stats lol
