Good page turner with a glimpse of daily life for people with differences.

Great read and I'm truly touched that Leese has been able to reveal so much of the autistic world.  Hooley is so insightful about the differences of Roper's interactions with those around him.  I will definitely keep reading Leese's Autistic British detective series and will recommend it to others.

Good characters with realistic lives and interesting interaction. Liked that we got a bit of perspective from all three main characters. Long enough to feel like things had time to evolve and conclude but not too long.

MMF with interactions between all three and DP.

I agree with several other readers that this is a page turner worth your time and it seems to include some recycled content from other books. That said, it is a fun and insightful book if you like looking inward at times.

Good character development. Good weaving of the current time with the early 1900s.  I don't normally read Titantic based books, but ths one was a "page turner" as the author spun the lives of people from a small area of Ireland leaving together. The reader feels the joy and eventually sorrow of relatives and friends.

Was glad to read something that was a little  less predictable than the only black or white views that seem to be reflected in the press these days, although there are some who may see this as one way or the other too. Was very easy reading and the characters pulled you in. It's hard to share views on a subject where people have such strong feelings, one way or the other, so I appreciate people who will do that and show compassion at the same time.

I enjoyed this book, a peek into a husband and wifes life for 24 hours. They needed a short vacation to re-connect and went to do just that. Ran into lowlifes and although I was surprised by the very ending of the killing the last person. I was not on the others.

Very interesting glimpse of life at that time in history, especially details that normally escape the traditional historical writings.  Day-to-day things like how they dressed, what they ate, what was amusing to them, etc.; it shows how in many ways, we are more similar than different to the people from that era.  I only wish there were more such writings for other eras.

Frequently I read books not for the main subject matter but for the details of what life was like for the average person in a given time period. This was a pleasant surprise in its detail of life in London in 1849. It is not based on Kings, Queens, and Nobility but on the everyday life of the common people. I loved it.

I enjoyed this book. Although I felt like it was difficult to keep track of the characters because most were underdeveloped, the story line proved to be intriguing enough that it became a page turner despite the confusion. There were a couple of spelling and grammatical errors that I noticed but it was not such an issue that I wanted to put the book down. The story takes place in New Zealand and there are references/language that I was unfamiliar with but I was still able to understand what was being said using context clues and some common sense. Overall, the book was a quick and easy read that kept me engaged. I do, however, recommend keeping a running list of characters because, as stated previously, they are quite difficult to keep up with. At the end of the book I was still trying to remember who one of the final characters was; I remember thinking, "I don't remember anyone by this name! Did I skip pages by mistake?" With some research I was able to locate the earlier mention of said character. I look forward to reading more from this author as she becomes more polished and developed in her writing and character development.

I was provided with a complimentary copy of this book so I could give an honest review.

I like the authors style and ease with which he writes. I enjoyed reading about the racial unrest through the eyes of the community. It felt a little predictive but still  a good read.

This book has its ups and downs but overall I found it to be an enjoyable read. I particularly liked the two human characters and their sometimes surprising reactions to the strange situations they were in. I've read the other comments and agree with many of them.

Insightful look at the Annawadian slum in Mumbai.  A melting pot of people of different religions, wealth and life experiences.  An expos on the corruption and injustices of modern day India. Sadly this is true for many in our global community.  Made me appreciate the lifestyle I have.

The word "Hermit" is what caught my attention.  My expectations were not as I thought.  This is a page turner with twists and turns that the reader would not image.  There are lessons on "following your inner being" as well as what society fears.  Both success and failure gives the reader a different insite to a human personality that leaves the reader wondering what dream that you have passed up because of social pressure.

A good read.  Took me 2 days to read "The Stranger in the Woods" and I'll probably read it again.

Gripping day by day events that show the pressures of being a parent in todays times. Emotions are explored. In short I had a hard time putting the novel down.

Combination of stealth and romance that make for an interesting read. Combines real with reality. Good page turner for all. Not just for the gentleman either. The human will combined with expertise comes together to convulate into a great experience.

I liked this book.  Good character development and a page turner.  The ending is not really artist but not easily guessed either.

I enjoyed this book as the characters seemed very real and much of what they encountered and dealt with was recognisable to me in the life I see and experience around me.  It gave some good insights into the different religous communities and common prejudices.  All in all, I found it a very good read and would refer friends to it.
