I have read quite a few books just l...Hi Felicity,<br /><br />I have read quite a few books just lately where I have detested many of the characters, but perhaps that is just a personal thing and I haven't actually been supposed to dislike them all so much!! <br /><br />Sometimes, I enjoy grappling with these 'bad person' characters. Stories where everyone turns out to be nice in the end, are a bit too sugary for me, although every once in a while, a happy ending is good to have.<br /><br />I think that with the ever advancing age of self-publishing, there are no barriers to entry any more, so many of the genres do seem to be a little overcrowded now, as there are only so many permutations of a storyline you can come up with. Is that likely to stop me keep reading books so avidly though? Of course not - as if :)<br /><br />This looks like another new to me author hitting my shelves, as I like the sound of many of Carol's books. I was a little surprised that this is the first story she has written, where the cover art is so vastly out of sync with all the others, which are quite uniform in their theme. The OCD in me has to wonder why?<br /><br />A lovely review as ever, you definitely helped sell this one to me, so thanks for sharing :)<br /><br />Yvonne<br />xx<br />Yvonne @ Fiction Books Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14821114534056290177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372511622978085955.post-72902004897355483802020-07-26T11:48:33.752+01:002020-07-26T11:48:33.752+01:00I'm glad this turned out to be a winner despit...I'm glad this turned out to be a winner despite the unlikable characters.

I guess I tend to read older fiction when writers did not do that too much. I have also not read many dark domestic stories. However, if a writer is goof I can see them being appealing.
