Novel centers on a family (three children and their parents) reuniting to celebrate Dad's 75th birthday. The book has a lot of promise and bright spots, but came across as dull and lackluster to me.

Put the world back together
A wonderful little puzzle game where buildings, vehicles etc are taken apart and you rebuild them. Don't assume that it's easy though, although brilliantly designed this puzzle will promise to tax your brain

Today I went to see The Promise...this movie was pretty close to the history that I was told growing up as the step daughter of an Armenian it made me saddened and proud of the culture. I was also surprised that I laughed a few times it hit me on all emotions.

‏I was provided with a complimentary copy of this book so I could give an honest review.

Teresa Driscoll's most popular book is I am Watching You. Her latest thriller is I Will Make You Pay. Enjoying an earlier book, The Promise, as much as I did, I was excited to have the opportunity to review her new novel.

In I Will Make You Pay Journalist Alice Henderson receives a threatening phone call while at work. Dismissing it as a hoax, she hangs up. Exactly one week later, it becomes apparent it is not a hoax. Alice should be worried. Alice's family should be worried. Alice should be worried for and about her family.

The twists and turns work. The characters are fully developed and likable. The story flows so well it was hard to find a stopping point. I ended staying awake much later than I should have on a work night. However, the story was worth it and did not disappoint.

After thoroughly enjoying both The Promise and I Will Make You Pay, I added other books by Teresa Driscoll to my "want to read" list. If she keeps writing thrilling books like the two I read, I will continue reading them.

This 200-word review was published on Philomathinphila.com on 1/21/2020.

There Will Be Blood (2007)
There Will Be Blood (2007)
2007 | Drama
The closing sequence delivers on the promise of the movie's title in a manner that keeps viewers discussing it long after the picture ends. There Will Be Blood is not a movie that disappears quietly.
Critic- Marjorie Baumgarten
Original Score: 4.5 out of 5

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

I really liked this one! It has a great diverse caste of characters and a believable mostly likable protagonist.
It was totally understandable that Danny was upset about the broken promise.

I really liked the houseguests and the ghost story.
