The Pact

Finally got around to reading my Christmas present! Started it yesterday and finished it this morning. Obviously a good read and a very interesting look at how friendships can grow into more and yet be extinguished overnight. I'm not just talking about Chris and Em's relationship, but also that of their parents. Great analysis of truth being molded by perception. I thought more might have come from Em's moment with 'The Creep' perhaps in her diary or something. At one stage I was also suspecting third party involvement in the shooting and full blown affairs between the parents. Just in case you read it, I won't say whether I was right or wrong, but I was happy with what was left in and what was left out ;)

The Good Guy

It's been a little while since I finished this book and I'm already having to think hard to remember what it was about. Thank goodness I started this blog!
Probably not such a good idea reading it hot on the heals of The Husband since the main characters were a bit similar (gardener vs stone mason) both with capabilities we wouldn't have thought they'd possess. The best part was that I wasn't expecting the brother to be involved in the way that he turned out to be and I quite enjoyed the multi-layered reasons behind the whole contract in the first place.
