Sarah (7800 KP) rated The Sudden Appearance of Hope in Books
Aug 11, 2017
Good premise
I had high hopes (ha) for this, but sadly I found it a little disappointing. It's a great individual idea for a story and it starts off well, I just found the plot dragging after a while and the ending was disappointing. Hope herself isnt tbe most endearing of characters either. Shame as the writing was very good, just the story itself doesn't live up to expectations.

Alex and JJ are back with a very "Silence of the Lambs" meet "Psycho" type villian. This was an enjoyable macabre read. I know kinda an oxymoron but if you like crime novels you will love the Alex Hope series. The characters are well done and the plot flows. Yes, there is romance but I feel it is almost secondary to the crime solving but no less enjoyable.

It was a good book and I’m sure the sequel will be even better but I feel like there could have been more depth to it. I don’t know, I just think there was something missing. When it ended I felt it was a bit meh. I’ll read the next one because I dislike leaving it on a cliff hanger but I hope there’s a lot more to it.

I haven't listened to the radio in years
Spotify canged my life. No more flipping through random Texas radio stations, hoping against hope you will find something livable. Now i make various lists (i love lists) and play what I'm I'm the mood for. When I am sick of a song I just move it to the "old" folder and wait a while.

Well-written high fantasy, but honestly, it just went on too long. So far, everybody has lost someone important. Anybody who loves anyone seems to be doomed. Betrayals are everywhere, and that's something I find profoundly disturbing.
The book did end on a note of hope, and I want to know what happens next. I just don't know if I want it enough to slog through (at least) two more volumes.

This book was surprising. It wasn't quite what I was expecting, rather dark but beautifully written in stunning prose. The ending came out of left field for me but when I reflect it seems obvious and the best and only way to conclude such a dark story. This author is quite talented and one I'll be watching, I just hope the next story is a little more upbeat and positive.

Beautifully written and completely original yet not so far fetched as to be totally unbelievable. Character driven and focused on the relationships between them as well as between humans and nature. I couldn't put it down and read it in one day unfortunately, as it was one of those rare and magical stories that I never wanted to end. I hope to see a sequel in the future. Highly recommended!!

I absolutely adore this movie and truly hope that it marks the comeback of musicals for the modern era. Modern technology allowed for this movie to be bigger and better than many musicals I've seen before. I loved all the music and the dance numbers were huge! Definitely a movie Id watch again and again, recommended for any musical lover!
