By Grady Hendrix

Patrica loves her family but doesn’t really like her life. A husband that works too much, teenage kids that are never around, caring for her MIL, cooking and cleaning consume her life. But she does like her book club. That’s when she meets James Harris, the mysterious stranger who just came to town. Is he a friend? Is he up to no good? Is he human?

AGGH…I bought this book because of the title. Based on title alone, this was going to become my favorite book. But, Lord help me, the title is the best part about this book. It could have been great but the story is disjointed, hard to follow. It has characters, relationships and plot lines that seem only partially developed – making it difficult to connect to any of them. It takes forever to get to any sort of action. The last 75-100 pages are really enjoyable, but it was a struggle to get there.
