Where the River Ends

Where the River Ends

by: Charles Martin

Don't read -- sad, sad, book. Only if you have far too much happiness, need to come down a bit, miss the feelings of loss and sadnes should you read this book.

What was the author thinking? Why would he want to delve into this every day.

Husband and wife, married 14 years, happy, her father does not like the husband. She gets cancer, she does not recover. It goes downhill from there!! No up side! Well, ok, at the end, the husband and father finally see the good in each other and like each other, this is at least a year after the wife has died.

I did NOT read this book fully. I was sick of the sadness. I skipped to see the happy ending, found non, started reading it backward (last page, then next to the last, etc.). Finally I understood the story was just sad! That was it for me.

Holly has read this author. Quite liked him. I will try him one more time. Every one of his book cannot be that sad!
