Quick read, with an ending that I didn't see coming!
Lisa Power is an acclaimed author who wrote a bestseller about her hometown, Thief River Falls. A young boy appears in her yard, after the police have come to her house. The young boy doesn't remember his name or how he got there. Lisa calls him Perdue, the same name as the boy in her book. As the story progresses, Lisa tries to keep Perdue safe from the men who were chasing him. She can't trust anyone, even those she thought were her friends.
The hints are all there, but I was so engrossed in the story that I missed them, although I was puzzled by some of the things mentioned. If I thought about it, I could have understood that the ending would be a shocker. ( )

Pulled me in!

This novel pulled me from the very first page. I could not put it down, and in a few hours, I had finished the entire book. It was that engrossing. I was able to envision each character, place, and everything that was transpiring. Mr. Freeman certainly has a knack for storytelling and keeping the reader involved. I was moved to tears a few times, literally, and that doesn't happen often to me. I look forward to reading more works from Mr. Freeman. ( )

Freeman is my favorite author and this book just didn't do it for me. It was sometimes hard to follow and convoluted. The decisions that Lisa (A famous author) made throughout the book were sketchy and hard to follow. The twist was a let down. I'll stick with his other books that I love ( )

“Thief River Falls” starts off strong. Author Lisa Power finds a missing little boy she calls “Purdue,” who suffers from memory loss in the wake of a tragedy that appears to mimic the plot of her best-selling novel. It’s a great premise, and I was initially hooked.

As the story goes on, however, it lost steam. It became a lot of “who can we trust” and “how do we get out of here,” with peripheral characters like Lisa’s best friend, Dr. Laurel March, who “Purdue” says he doesn’t like, because she looked at him “like she knew him.” Later, there will be a story involving “Purdue’s” mother, which is a bit of misdirection.

I have an issue with stories that pull tricks. If I read one story and at 90% through am told not to trust anything I’ve read to that point, I’m upset. I invested time in reading a lie, and it’s frustrating. I don’t want to ruin anything for other readers, so I’ll just say this wasn’t for me. I debated whether or not this was a four-star read until around 80%. After that, I’m having a hard time giving it a three.

This was not Freeman’s normal book. Actually I have mixed feelings about how much I liked it. While I read it in 2 days, the ending is so different. I had to go back and find the place I got lost. The premiss of the book was just weird.... ( )
