Storm Cycle by Iris Johansen
2.0
Work from home 2020: book 3.
Indiana Jones-esque. A quick read, mainly good if you are trying to alleviate boredom, but not a book that I wanted to devour (unlike most of Johansen’s books). I liked the happy ending, the positive sister bond, the twist at the end that I (at least) did not see coming.
I imagine that writing with your mother (or your son) can inhibit some of the scenes you would write on your own. But I did read another book by this writing duo — Silent Thunder — which was a lot more enjoyable than this one was. I’d definitely recommend that one over this one. This was a little too predictable, a little too “happy” in that both sisters end up with boyfriends by the end (& you see that coming from the beginning of the book, basically). And just a little too unbelievable in general (see Indiana Jones comment above)...
