The writing is GORGEOUS - very gothic, very evocative - and the story is quite good.

What exactly was happening is less clear. My coblogger and I did some speculating in our review at http://shelflove.wordpress.com/2009/09/24/the-little-stranger-review/Teresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09896331683344872038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7807369122559702185.post-56721185110117339192009-12-31T11:04:54.232-05:002009-12-31T11:04:54.232-05:00Lisa - The ending was the reason I put this on my ...Lisa - The ending was the reason I put this on my TBR list originally, but I had completely forgotten that by the time I read it. LOL<br /><br />Kat - I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.<br /><br />Kay - YAY! Kay's back!!! I'm still subscribed to your blog (I think) so any new posts should just pop up ... I hope. So glad you'll be around this year. :)<br /><br />Michelle - Great! I'm really looking forward to that chat.<br /><br />Lilly - Ooh, yes, do make 2010 the year of Sarah Waters!<br /><br />softdrink - Perfect - more people to chat with!<br /><br />bermudaonion - I usually feel the same, hence my initial frustration, but sometimes it works for me.<br /><br />Bibliolatrist - I think it was only b/c I was EXPECTING a solid "truth" at the end that I was so frustrated. But I'd love to know what YOU think happened in the end - email me your theory if you get a chance!<br /><br />Literary Feline - I'm sure you'll love it! Have a wonderful new year. :)Heather J. @ TLC Book Tourshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10474181812740579350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7807369122559702185.post-46481414322771242072009-12-31T10:58:13.149-05:002009-12-31T10:58:13.149-05:00I am looking forward to reading this one.
