The Almost Moon by Alice Sebold ?

Has anyone read this yet?
I loved her other two books Lovely Bones and Lucky and was wondering if this was as good as the other two?
Thanks

LOVED both Lucky and Lovely Bones....

Almost Moon was just not as good as I expected. It is not the same kind of book, or even style of writing in my opinion. I think it was ok.. but does NOT compare to the other 2 books. I may have liked it if I was not expecting so much after reading the first 2.

Re: The Almost Moon by Alice Sebold ?

that is disappointing to hear. I was so looking foward to reading another great book from her. However, when I read the back of the book cover, I was not really excited.

I couldn't even get past the 2nd chapter. I never usually give up on a book but I gave up on this one. Very disappointing.

ITA.

You might like "In the Woods" by Tana French though.. (and the spin-off "The Likeness."
