(I was confusing it with another book by the same author.) I definitely love it when books don't turn out the way I expected!<br /><br />I'm on the waiting list at the library for Let Me Lie. I'm not sure about the weird ghost POV and throwing in every twist imaginable (that really irritates me because it's rarely done well), but I'll probably still give it a shot. <br /><br />I think I also have Our House on hold (well, it's on order so I'd basically get it whenever the library receives it), so it's a bummer to see that you didn't enjoy it. I'll probably still read this one as well. Who knows ... I may actually like it.<br /><br />I hope you're feeling better!

Adding it to my list. I haven't read a James Patterson book in forever, but sometimes it's exactly what I need. Never read an Alex Delaware book, but I'm from Delaware, so obviously I should.
