keisenbraun 's review for:
Marrow Island
by Alexis M. Smith
I thought I was going to love this. The writing is gorgeous and the author describes the ecology of the San Juan islands in a way that makes you feel like you are there. But the book started feeling uneven as it went on. The mystery and catastrophic events that are foreshadowed in the prologue did not end up being as dramatic as expected. I kept feeling like I had missed something. I just didn't have a firm grasp on Lucie's character or really understand her relationship with Carey. By the end, I was ready for it to be over.
