John Cleaver #2

I reatd the first in this series (I am not a Serial Killer) and liked it. I read through some fellow reader's reviews before I wrote this review, just to see if I was once again the only one who did not love this book. Like others--I found this book barely a 3 star. I also agree that for a shorter book it was still too long. The author had John always in his head droning on and on and on about his nonstop battle between being good and doing evil. Not a lot of plot development and it was very long on needless details. Not to mention, he deliberately kills a cat. I am two and done with this series.

I am a huge fan of Ms. du Maurier and count Rebecca as one of my Top Ten favorite books. This collection certainly did not disappoint. I am not sure what this says about me but I particulary liked the ones where she applied a wickedly dark sense of humor as set up her characters for an unhappy ending. My favorites were: Week-End, And His Letters Grew Colder, and The Limpet.
