great book

I love the book and the story line. Can't wait to read the second book. The detail of each character was really great. This was a great ook to start with as a first book with James Patterson .

Still Undecided

I was introduced to James Patterson when a friend gave me Double Crossed to read. To go from that to this... kind of a stretch. The story was good but I think it was the narration that had me troubled. The music should never have been incorporated into this audio book. Good book, not great audio book. I'd save the credit and just buy the book to read. Probably a better experience.

Short Story

I found the book to be too short but the narration was good. There is no suspense in my opinion and so the story trails on very quickly.

When the Wind Blows

I really liked this one. A little different but it kept my interest. I did not want it to end.

Not second in series

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

I was under the impression that this was the second book following the book The Lake House. But it wasn't more like a synopsis of the first. I would love a second part of the Lake house. Loved the bird children.
