I disagree. A book needs to answer every question it has raised. Books are not real life. (It's one of the reasons so many of us like reading them.) If a book raises a question, the book needs to answer that question satisfactorily for the readers, or somehow make it explicit that it is not answering the question for purposes of sequel or (on philosophical matters) for the purpose of making the reader think about those questions and answer them for themselves.Karina Nowak wrote: ↑23 Dec 2019, 16:53I was going to say exactly this. Not every book needs to have an answer for every question. And there are readers that will appreciate it just the way it is. The author probably should label it differently though, as crime and mystery fans will be disappointed. Too many dead ends that lead nowhere.AntonelaMaria wrote: ↑18 Dec 2019, 17:23 I read in one of these topics about this book, I can't remember which one, how someone described this book as simple and light reading. I'm leaning towards that opinion too. I think all your points have merit. But maybe we are trying to look too much into it. Maybe we expect too much from this book.
Sadly, I have not been impressed with any of this author's work, and the fact that she writes these threads and then just leaves them dangling is one of the reasons.
