pickWow! I don't think the ending was at all a surprise, even the fact that Patrick covered for his son. When he drowned the cat, I knew he was bad news. There was no closure to Mark's disappearance, Lina's father or where Shawn went however my guess is that he's dead, it's the old boyfriend and far away from Helen to begin a new, twisted life. Julia becoming a mother figure to Lina was a good thing; they need each other. 🎥 potential! #ucfproflc
I have finished this book a week early and in order not to spoil anything regarding this crazy read, I will wait to make my final post until next Sunday. I will say that I could see this being turned into a movie; possibly a suspenseful and scary one @CherylVDM @Mlittle @Ehoffman #ucfproflc
I have now read up to part 3! I think I have all of the characters straight now. Patrick and Shawn Townsend are both hiding something. I think Shawn cheated on Helen with Nell and possibly, Patrick (identified as the Satan of the town) took care of her! I didn't see the Mark and Katie connection coming at all. What else does Josh know about his sister's death? I feel sad for Lena's losses! Will someone else die in the drowning pool? #ucfproflc
So, the funeral was a strange event. Julia's response to seeing Nel's old boyfriend and Erin's observation of Patrick, the cat killer, were both interesting. Helen is the DI's wife and Patrick is her father in law; their relationship is odd. It's still somewhat confusing with so many characters but it's intriguing! #ucfproflc
This book is still somewhat confusing to me. I'm concerned about Nell's daughter; Aunt Jules is making her out to be a psychopath. Nell taunted and bullied Jules throughout her childhood. No wonder she left town and didn't respond to her calls. The cabin is a scary place. The water is worse...looking forward to figuring some if this out!
#ucfproflc first several chapters I found myself flipping back and forth trying to keep characters straight , but starting to connect a bit now. I'm not liking the Mark Henderson character at all!!
so-so#ucfprofLC I enjoyed the friendship between Lucy and Nate along with the photography and loon theme throughout the story. The bald 🦅 scene was sad but expected. I saw an eagle while kayaking on the St. John's River over Spring Break. This was a recent text to 🌎 connection. Overall, I think this book would be a good addition to a classroom library but I wouldn't place it in a book pass for LCs.
