I must be the odd man out.  I've read all of her books and am about halfway through The Death of Mrs. Westaway.  To me, it is the least interesting of all of them.  I've invested time in it, so I am going to finish it, but I think I'm done with this author as I've found all her books to be mediocre at best.  They've just drawn so much acclaim that I keep thinking the next one will be the one that draws me in, but that has never happened.


Nothin odd about you @Ainhisg.  I find her to be mediocre also.  This last book was so repetitious.

I was disappointed with In a Dark ...Wood.  But I finished it.  Easy read, but not "scary" like Reese:s cover quote  says.  Will read her other books eventually.

I read The Woman in Cabin 10 a while ago.

 

I just finished The Death of Mrs. Westaway.  I really wanted to like it, but found it just okay.  

 

I'm getting bored with female lead characters who act so weak, always scared or whiny - eyes on the ground ... stomach drops ... heart in their throat ... "mushad" as my family would say. Come on - grow a set!Woman Tongue

 

I'll hold off on her 3rd book for a while.

After saying that I was going to finish The Death of Mrs. Westaway, I tried last night, and just couldn't do it.  I didn't like the plot or characters so just called it quits.  I'm done with Ruth Ware books.
