I care about the characters in Louise Penny's book, and the plot in Glass Houses was convoluted enough to be interesting. But the writing DRIVES. ME. BATTY. Too many tiny sentences in a row. Like a child wrote it.

This is one of my FAVE louise penny books. I’ve read all of her books, several times over - and this one is top tier. The story line is so great, the problems so real, and the plot SUCKS you in. Also, this is one of her books that feels like it has a bad ending, rather than sugar coated.
