So that's why I decided to give it three stars. However, on Goodreads I only gave it two. Lol. You see, in my rating system, three stars means "Good. I liked it, but....: On Goodreads, though, three stars means "I liked it." And that's it.

This wa...Hi, Brian!<br /><br />Thanks for the good word!! :)<br /><br />This was a rather paradoxical read for me, as I stated in the review. The book is very well-written, and it kept my interest, in spite of my discomfort. But I kept struggling with that feeling of oppression. Part of it might have been due to the terrible storms Lena unwittingly unleashed. But part of it was also due to Macon RavenwoodMaria Beharhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13635809880830316283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5276110560172164522.post-42060986891762487702017-10-24T11:39:37.792-04:002017-10-24T11:39:37.792-04:00I am sorry this one wasn't better for you.
