reading this book was a little like hearing the svu soundtrack through the bedroom wall..... people were being hacked up left and right and there was a rapist stalker on the loose. spooky, but Micheal McGarrity's Hermit's Peak wasn't too scary and was pretty good. i do like a little more mystery, though. there really wasn't a whole lot of suspense and there was absolutely no "whodunit" element.... because the author tells you and makes the connections for you early on. i prefer to guess until the end, and then have the connections spelled out. because of this, i was not on the edge of my seat, reading in suspense. i did get through it pretty quickly though because i wanted to know who was going to get cracked down next. the love story was pointless and totally unrealistic. that was unfortunate. Why 100?
Last year I set out to read 100 books, but I ran out of time and only read 75. So this year, I will read one hundred books. And you're my witness :) The only thing stopping me this year is 9 seasons' worth of Seinfeld episodes- wish me luck!
