Some people have the worst luck and Blake Sanders has the
worst. His lost his son, career, wife,
and now one of his only friends. He is also accused of murder. Although it sounds like he has the life of the
Biblical Job, I liked the character of Blake Sanders and especially the
friendship he struck with the elderly woman, Midge Babcock.
When there are several different story lines going at the
same time as this story had, I only ask that they smoothly connect at some
point in the book. Night Blind was a little confusing at first because the storylines
were so different that I couldn’t imagine how they related. At first it was
like reading a book of short stories, all different, and it was little difficult
to keep them straight. There was even a
confusing point in which there was mention of an event that turned out not to take
place until later in the book. I re-read the that chapter several times before
I gave up only to find later in the story where it was explained.
I thought Night Blind
started out as a great story, turned into a good story, but then after
traveling down way too many rabbit trails, it turned into an OK story. By the
end of the book, honestly, I actually didn’t care much who did what.
I received a review copy of this book in return
for an honest and fair review. I provide a link to Amazon.com to purchase
the book, but it is only as a courtesy and I receive no compensation if
purchased.
