That isn't always a bad thing but at times I was able to just set this book aside and not pick it back up. It wasn't until the very end that I was invested enough for it to become unputdownable.<br /><br />Rita- I can't blame you for not going back to it because there were times that I wasn't sure if I would finish. I'm glad I did though because I really, really liked Mina. I'm hoping that I enjoy this author's other books more to be quite honest :)<br /><br />Naida- I had high hopes because the Goodreads summary sounded quite creepy. That definitely wasn't the case. I wouldn't say this was a bad book because it wasn't but it also wasn't great either.<br /><br />Kimba- I definitely liked this book enough to try more by Ephron. Her books all sound so good so hopefully I connect more to the next one that I try. I love when a book is able to surprise me...it makes the reading experience that much more fun!samantha.1020https://www.blogger.com/profile/04124614710493747821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4047824216061619284.post-34012963926310733732013-09-15T11:15:09.465-07:002013-09-15T11:15:09.465-07:00Wonderful review, while as a seasoned reader I am ...Wonderful review, while as a seasoned reader I am not often stumped I do like it when there are some elements I didn't see coming. Especially when I am unsure of a characters true intentions. I am glad it was solid enough to make you try this author again :)Kimberly @ Caffeinated Reviewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15658833731713991138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4047824216061619284.post-76934322516759646932013-09-15T07:08:15.500-07:002013-09-15T07:08:15.500-07:00I've seen There Was an Old Woman around and it...I've seen There Was an Old Woman around and it looks good. Too bad it was predictable though and not too suspenseful. I like to be kept guessing with this genre.

The fact that I have not pursued getting it back to finish I guess means it wasn't my cup of tea-- I wanted more to happen, more suspense or action. I had such high hopes for it.
