The Seduction of Water

I loved the cover of the book and the title and took a chance on it, but the story didn't keep me as riveted as the book jacket copy seemed to promise. The story of a woman trying to unravel the secret past of her deceased mother, in part for the purpose of writing a book about her, was simply not a memorable tale. I finished it out of a sense of obligation.

I've enjoyed every Carol Goodman novel that I have read so far, but this one was NOT my favorite. I found it hard to get into this one for some reason, and that is probably enough said...
