All Around The Town
All Around The Town | Mary Higgins Clark
6 posts | 34 read | 2 to read
Mary Higgins Clark, the Queen of Suspense, crafts a terrifying story of murder and obsession with "a slambam finish" (Los Angeles Times Book Review). ALL AROUND THE TOWN When Laurie Kenyon, a twenty-one-year-old student, is accused of murdering her English professor, she has no memory of the crime. Her fingerprints, however, are everywhere. When she asks her sister, attorney Sarah, to mount her defense, Sarah in turn brings in psychiatrist Justin Donnelly. Kidnapped at the age of four and victimized for two years, Laurie has developed astounding coping skills. Only when the unbearable memories of those lost years are released can the truth of the crime come out -- and only then can the final sadistic plan of her abductor, whose obsession is stronger than ever, be revealed.

A few of Mary Higgins Clark's novels have sat on my TBR shelf for ages. Given her recent passing, I thought now a great a time as ever to read them. Flanked by a few of my selections in the queue to complete March #BookishBingo 🍀💚

I won‘t be finishing this one. I loved Clark in high school, and thought it would be fun to read one. This one was popular; I was like a billion deep in the holds. But the writing is so terrible. The characters are one-dimensional. You never know what anyone is thinking. There are no motivations for anything. I might try her a time or two more. Her career spans so many years, maybe I just got a bad one.

I do enjoy these quizzes...I got the "All-Rounder" which definitely feels fitting--each of the descriptions above fit my overall reading personality.

I read the description for this while walking to the shelf to put it away and now I definitely think it needs to go on my (humongous) TBR list.. looks good!

I'm assuming #MysteriousLove refers to a love of mysteries, so I have to admit that I have more than a slight obsession with Mary Higgins Clark books. #17BookLove

Someone suggested as a god fun read. Formulaic, ultra descriptive, cliche and the science was horrid!!!
