Favorite Passage

I'm now editing the third title in my Revenir series, which I published in 2011 (sequels in 2011, 14, 15). [the first speaker is the MC, Cait's mother]


“You’ve turned into a beautiful woman,” she said. “When did that happen?”
I said, “March third, at two-thirty-three in the afternoon.”
“A mauve eyeshadow with the hint of a lilac liner would make your gorgeous eyes snap.”
My throat tightened and my eyes threatened to well. That had to be the most personal thing she had ever said to me.

CLOSET FULL OF BONES - A.J. Aalto


My latest read is a nice character driven suspense. Great characters. Different kind of story. The author teases, twists, and teases, with an ever-weaving story that gasps with a final climax. I don't particularly like changing points of view or omniscient narration, but I was intrigued by the main character enough to stick to the last page. (As a writing professional, this could have been edited better, but I choose to look the other way when the story is this good, and I think the regular reader won't even notice the little glitches.)
