The Lake House

What’s it about? This is a good old-fashioned mystery by English writer Kate Morton.  I read “The Forgotten Garden” a few years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it.  I think of her books as an easy treat! What did I think? This book started off a little slow, but did not disappoint in the end. Should you read it? This is just a fun book to read.  The plot pulls you along, the mystery keeps you wondering, and the English countryside is a great setting.  If you like your books all tied up in a bow at the end- then you will love Kate Morton. Quote- “All of London passed through those tunnels, a steady flow of humanity in its many weird and wonderful forms, and among them Alice slipped like a ghost.  To age was contemptible, but the single silver lining was the cloak of invisibility gifted by the years.  Nobody noticed the little old lady sitting primly in a corner of the carriage, handbag on her knee.”
