Reading Journal

I finished "Old Border Road."  It was an okay book.  Not bad, but not really my style.

The ending was one of the worst I've ever read. 

I'm going to talk about the ending....
....just so you know.

....If you don't want the ending spoiled, stop reading.

.....I mean it.

It ends with her taking him to the hospital, and the very last scene is her filling out the paper work.  She signs her full name.

It should have ended with them leaving the hired man at the old adobe house.  That would have been a better ending, and probably fit more with the style of the book.

I started "A Thousand Bayonets," which is a Goodreads Giveaway I won like 6 months ago.  It isn't bad, but I'm not so sure I'm going to be impressed with it.  We'll see.
