All Around The Town


Aside from the fact that the cover of this book is pink, giving it the look of a romance novel, on a one to ten scale I give it about a 7. That mark is good considering I usually go for the more historical books.

The novel is a who-done-it book about a girl who was kidnapped for two years at a young age. The experience was so traumatic for her, she develops a multi personality disorder to deal with the stress. After being released and returned back home she succeeds for a time in moving past the traumatic events, and life returns back to normal. Then, upon the death of her parents, her personalities return and, after a series of events, she becomes the prime suspect in the murder of her professor. The book has several twists and turns including a surprise ending.

If you are not afraid of a book you have to read in the closet, or if the fact that the female author has the need to describe what every one is wearing regardless of if it is relevant or not does not get to you, you might enjoy this book.

Why Nate, you made it sound so intriquing. Now I simply must go read it.

I did not read the book, but the movie was strange. LOL! Although there is Michael Shank (from the Stargate Series) in it as the psychologist. I dunno if I'd say it was a waste of time watching the movie though - just a different movie than I was used to. ;-)
