Disappointment! Sue Henry needs a good editor. Two plot points were just dropped: why both Phil Becker and Sharon Parker were attacked. Apparently, we are to assume that those crimes were unrelated to the Donny Thompson murder. Also, the writing was often stilted and awkward, though this is true of her other books too, especially "The Refuge." What's going on?
Degrees of Separation - A Jessie Arnold Mystery I enjoyed this book very, very much. I have read several other Jessie Arnold Mysteries & this if right up there in the fun, good mystery & a very good read. Would recommend it to anyone who enjoys mysteries. Also has lots of descriptive scenes of Alaska & animals. Love her dogs. Read it!Degrees of Separation I am a big fan of Sue Henry, but thought the Degrees of Separation was not
her best book. The last few pages were up to her usual exciting, Who Done
It, element but reading about Jessie and Alex was too much of the same. I
almost thought I was reading a book I'd read before.
I would have loved more about Maxie and Stretch. Their adventurers together
on the road are the best.
Waiting to read End of the Road when it comes in paperback.
Delanna Schneider Another great Jessie! Sue Henry just keeps telling us more and more about Jessie with a nice mystery tossed in! More!Weakest of the series This is the weakest book in the Jessie Arnold series. The mystery is lame, the characterization nonexistent and the dialog more awkward than usual. A couple of gratuitous earthquakes are tossed in -- apparently to make up for the lack of local colour -- but do nothing to add to the interest.
