Plot Bumps and Twists

Book 5 of the demon accords takes off right where book four ended.  I steamrolled through this book in six hours and totally enjoyed it.  Yes, there is a plot twist half way through the book.  Some may not like it, I personally thought it was well done.  Chris isn't omnipotent and he does get taken down a peg or should I say taken back a peg.  No spoilers in this review!

The story adds some twists that will give the reader an idea of the direction that the future story will go.  The humorous parts of the book are well done, the dialog  between the characters is well done too.  I have no complaints about the book. If you enjoyed the previous four books, then this one will make you happy. Like many of the fans on facebook, I've read the book twice in as many days.  The end notes in the back of the book give some real life explanation for the plot twist.  I can't recommend these books enough.

Characters and plot a little contrived with many twists and turns.  Some story lines left hanging but still an enjoyable read. Starting book 4 right now.

This book is like a roller coaster ride. Just when you think things have settled, the plot gets more intriguing.

Good plot twists and some important character growth.  Tone is darker than I prefer, but the story continues to develop more complexity and keeps the reader curious about how things will turn out.

I had trouble with some of the names, but that is my issue.

A tyrant needs to be killed but it is more difficult than first thought. Kat and her sister are missing a lot of information about their lives. Are they traitors, patriots, or both. Who can they trust? Lifelong friends may be working for the tyrant, or not.

There are many plot twists. A great setup for the next book.

This was a fun read, but the plot twists alternate from barely believable to kind of obvious. Ok for a lunch-time read.

A bit convoluted and a couple of plot points that struck me as a bit incredulous; but all in all, an enjoyable read and recommended.

I enjoyed reading 'The Couple Next Door', but what I found really interesting was the way in which the plot developed.
This may sound a little odd, but the plot made me think of peeling an onion; layer by layer the it unfolds, each little piece being stripped away until we are left with the conclusion, in this case the big reveal around which the story revolves.
Anne and Marco are the stricken parents at the centre of 'The Couple Next Door,' who arrive home from their neighbour's party to find their beloved daughter's crib empty. Unable to find a babysitter, against her better judgement, Annie had been persuaded to set up a monitor next door leaving Cora home alone. The unthinkable happens; just after midnight, while her parents partied next door, Cora is taken.
Detective Rasbach takes on the case; experienced, meticulous, suspicious, he pieces together the jigsaw of events feeling that there is something 'not quite right' about Anne and Marco's story.
'The Couple Next Door' is not just the story of Anne and Marco however. The neighbours, Cynthia and Graham with whom they were partying when Cora was taken, are also involved in the investigations, with some unexpected and shocking results!
Despite the storyline and intriguing plot development, I found the author, Shari Lapena's voice a little irritating at times. The sentences were quite short and often abrupt, reading a bit simplistically for such a tight and complicated plot. It felt as if Shari was trying so hard to keep a handle on the different strands of what was going on, that she had to ensure, in her writing, that both she and the reader were able to keep up.
I give this book 3 stars.

This book's plot's already been reviewed, so I'll just add that it's fun without being fluffy--the characters are well-developed and the plot's full of interesting twists. The "contests" between the prospective brides are great, as is their growing friendship. I have a couple of plot complaints, including one pre-wedding tryst that goes too far, and the fact that one major conflict toward the end is basically swept under the rug, but there's a lot of good stuff here. I'm keeping it.

I enjoyed this story. The plot jumped around a great deal, with name changes, secrets emerging, and the lead female seemed more lost than I was. It did level out at times and all was revealed in the end. There are some really well-developed characters to be enjoyed! Happy reading!

The book is very entertaining, but sometimes it forces plot twists in a way that does not make much sense.

I enjoyed the story line and the twists/turns in the plot.  The transition to the next chapter (book) in the series was unexpectedly awkward.  A captivating read, nonetheless.

i am enjoying this book but it does jump from 1 plot line to another. I think the author had 2 books in mind and compiled them into 1.
