DESCRIPTION:
Slow book with a ludicrous plot line and a very bad ending As many reviewers have already written, the plot is LUDICROUS and the tea scene at the end is absolutely MADDENING.This book was slow and I was sort of shocked when the murder happened at about 50% of the book (I read it on my Kindle so I don't know page numbers.) I thought to myself "How are they going to fill up the rest of this book?" An. "A Mystery for Scooby Doo Fans" according to Kindle Fan. I have to admit up front that I was very disappointed in In a Dark, Dark Wood.The story centers on Nora, a 26 year old crime fiction writer who is sometimes referred to by other characters as Lee, Leonora, or Leo.

What should be a cozy and fun-filled weekend deep in the English countryside takes a sinister turn in Ruth Ware's suspenseful, compulsive, and darkly twisted psychological thriller. Working to uncover secrets, reveal motives, and find answers, Nora (Lee) must revisit parts of herself that she would much rather leave buried where they belong: in the past. Forty-eight hours later, she wakes up in a hospital bed injured but alive, with the knowledge that someone is dead. Leonora, known to some as Lee and others as Nora, is a reclusive crime writer, unwilling to leave her nest of an apartment unless it is absolutely necessary. When a friend she hasn't seen or spoken to in years unexpectedly invites Nora (Lee) to a weekend away in an eerie glass house deep in the English countryside, she reluctantly agrees to make the trip. Watson's riveting national sensation Before I Go to Sleep, this gripping literary debut from UK novelist Ruth Ware will leave you on the edge of your seat through the very last tick.. In the tradition of Paula Hawkins' instant New York Times best seller The Girl on the Train and S. Wondering not "what happened?" but "what have I done?", Nora (Lee) tries to piece together the events of the past weekend. J
