A review by annrawson
The Shut Eye by Belinda Bauer
3.0
Arrrrrrrggggghhhhhh
This is one of the most frustrating novels I have ever read. I seem to alternate with Belinda Bauer's novels - her first one was a complete delight but since then I've had very mixed feelings.
For this one the story telling is excellent, the characters beautifully drawn and there are odd pieces where a sentence really hits the spot. The plot is perfectly formed and complex - but - well, to explain would be far too much of a spoiler.
Apart from what to me is a near-fatal flaw though, this would have deserved five stars.
Perhaps that's a fault in the reader, not the novel.
