Book Reviews of When Will There Be Good News?: A Novel
Book Review: When Will There Be Another Jackson Brodie Book?
Summary: 5 Stars
I really enjoyed this book - I wish that I had had more time over the weekend to read it! I must admit, I was a bit disappointed in the end though... not only that the book was finished, but in the way that it didn't wrap up as tightly together as _Case Histories_ or even _One Good Turn_. Mostly, I was left lingering questions that make me VERY anxious for the next installment of Jackson Brodie's story. I guess, first of all - whose son is Nathan? Why call the dog Jackson, when Brodie is much better for a dog? Will Jackson and Louise end up together? I hope all of these questions and more are answered in the next book... I hope there IS a next book!! Though I have the feeling that it will probably be a very long wait...
Oh, it was quite nice how many dogs were in the book! A very good book!
Summary of When Will There Be Good News?: A Novel
On a hot summer day, Joanna Mason's family slowly wanders home along a country lane. A moment later, Joanna's life is changed forever...On a dark night thirty years later, ex-detective Jackson Brodie finds himself on a train that is both crowded and late. Lost in his thoughts, he suddenly hears a shocking sound...
At the end of a long day, 16-year-old Reggie is looking forward to watching a little TV. Then a terrifying noise shatters her peaceful evening. Luckily, Reggie makes it a point to be prepared for an emergency...
These three lives come together in unexpected and deeply thrilling ways in the latest novel from Kate Atkinson, the critically acclaimed author who Harlan Coben calls "an absolute must-read."
