Killing Harry

Summary: Killing time with Harry
Review: For me, the litmus test with any book is how easy it is to put down. Book time for Harry. From the opening page, you are eagerly awating the next, wanting to find out more about Harry and Harry's world. For me there was a real element of escapism about this novel. Harry seemed to have it all, the dream house on the coast, the fast car - all that was missing was someone to share it all with. And then he met her. The love scenes (reputedly the most difficult for any writer)are frighteningly detailed - this author must have been round the block a few times! - but then it all goes pear-shaped. His new perfect world collapses in a tragic accident. What happens next? Hey,I'm not giving it away but check this one out if you are going on vacation. But you will need secondary books because you will finish with Harry during the first day by the pool!

Summary: Killing Harry: You Won't be Killing your Time
Review: I generally don't read "romance" novels, but this isn't your typical run of the mill romance, instead what the reader gets is a highly intelligent read filled with twists and turns.

Godschall Johnson has created characters that could be your next door neighbors. They are well developed, very true to life and are important to the contents of the book. His dialogue for the characters are what really enthralled me about this book. I could hear the voices of these characters, their emotions, the responses, great impact of a character driven book.

The conflicts is this book are non-stop, when you think it will go one way, you are completely surprised and find that someone was either holding back or something just didn't want to click between the characters or plot. A truly enjoyable turning of events throughout.

The setting in Killing Harry is well done. The descriptions were like pictures developed in my mind and I could see what was being said, in otherwords, I was shown not told how things were. I give the author much credit for this hard type of writing. (rarely do I find an author that shows not tell a story)

I would highly recommend this book to anyone who likes 'reality' type stories with mystery and romance. A creative author that I plan to keep my eyes on.
