Zapped by Carol Higgins Clark (Book Beginnings & Friday 56)

Zapped is the 11th Regan Reilly book by Carol Higgins Clark. I was familiar with the character thanks to the Christmas stories written with Mary Higgins Clark, but this is the first I've read without Alvirah and Willy. And it may be my last. 

The good news is that it helped me finish my titles list for the Alphabet Soup challenge.


That's about it.

I remember the Northeast Blackout (that happened AUGUST 2003 -- not July). I was interested to see what Clark did with it. Unfortunately, what she did was confuse the heck out of me with too many characters and too many storylines and not enough pages to make them not feel like a rushed and jumbled mess.

Maybe it's just me. 

Maybe it's because I read a couple of outstanding books back to back. 

This will not be counted amongst them.

As always, Friday 56 (share a blurb from the 56th page or 56% mark) is hosted at Freda's Voice 
& Book Beginnings (share the first few sentences) is at Rose City Reader.

Sorry this book was a bit of a disappointment. I read a few Carol Higgins Clark books years ago and enjoyed them, but the contemporary settings aren't my favorites. Hope your next book is a great one!

What a miserable-sounding evening in the heat. Hope things improve for the character. My Friday post is here
