    Girl Falling
    The book started out ok, but left me feeling more and more uncomfortable the farther in I got. The main two characters each had their own problems, and the relationship between them was strange. Adding the third character added to the strangeness. It was a thriller, and kept me guessing, but there was so much going back and forth in time, and so many descriptive phrases, that it diluted the suspense. I just kept thinking.....these people need help. I would give it three and a half stars.

    Story Falling
    This book was an easy read – it flowed, it moved, the writing was interesting and well-crafted. The problem for me was the incredulity of the premise of the big issue that kept the protagonist making bad decisions. It was hard to believe the motivating factor for her behavior, which called into question the entire book. It did have an interesting and unexpected twist at the end, but by then, I was a non-believer. I think Ms Scrivenor is a good, interesting writer, and I look forward to more of her work - but only if it's plausible.
