Book Review of Come and Find Me

Come and Find Me
GainesvilleGirl avatar reviewed on + 215 more book reviews


Let me just say, right up front, that I am a totally non-techy person. I use a computer and a smart phone because I'd be so out of the loop in this world if I didn't. But my knowledge of both is basic. SO ... I've really had a hard time getting into this one. And the further I go, the more boring it becomes. I am writing my review at this point because there's a good chance I might not finish the book at all. I like Hallie Ephron, and finished Never Tell A Lie fast, craving another one by her, but if I thought many of her novels were going to be like this, I wouldn't bother starting one. Now,I realize there are a whole lot of people out there who love this kind of stuff, so I'd say "Go for it!" She wouldn't have written it, and it wouldn't have been published if there wasn't a market out there for this subject area. If I could understand what the heck they are talking about, I'd probably like it too.

UPDATE: I finished the darn book and disliked it almost every step of the way. The ending, which admittedly got a bit less boring than the beginning, was a mishmash of incidents that were so unbelievably impossible that at times I felt as though I were reading a kid's super hero comic book. This author can be so much better, why did she write this book?
