This started off so well, with a well-written premise that had me engaged immediately. But it all went downhill half-way through the book, when the writer, for no obvious reason, inserted the main character's belief that her dog could communicate with her. Really? It was so bizarre, and so random, that I lost interest immediately. It's almost as if she had a change of heart half-way through writing the book, and decided that she didn't want it to be a suspense novel, but a silly book about a person who can read minds. And from then on, it was all about mind-reading.Don't waste your money.

Pink Slips Beth Aldrich Books Reviews
The story started off great, then after the first third of the book it went downhill. It was inundated with uninteresting, I mean absolutely boring, fluff. It was akin to being stuck listening to someone who blabbers on and on till you want to scream and tell them to shut up.
Given the great opening of the book, I was still curious about the outcome and had hope for the story to eventually pick up, so I decided to give this one a chance. The story never picked up, nor did the writer make me believe in the thrown in woo-woo or in the identity of the stalker (the premise of the story). The writer spent so much time adding uninteresting filler she missed important (and interesting) content that would have made me believe that the main female character could telepathically communicate with her dog and comatose husband. Most importantly, the writer then could have made me believe that the stalker, once revealed, was even plausible. The person who-done-it seemed like a last minute pick and did not make sense.
Caution spoilers. I disliked the book for a few reasons but did manage to finish reading it. I was annoyed by the mind reading stuff but was able to get past that. What really bothered me was the main character and her foolishness. After making arrangements with her parents to be with her at her doctor appointment so she wouldn't have to go alone because she was being stalked and making arrangements with her neighbor to be with her for similar reasons she decides to go alone for a walk with the dog. And of course on the walk she gets approached by the Stalker! You could just see it coming! Then the next day she goes out again alone with the dog for a walk. Who would be dumb enough to do that knowing the guy is out there?
Another problem I had was the little amount of time she spent at the hospital with her critically injured husband. If it was me I would be at his bedside as often as I could. And I would let someone else worry about cupcakes for her son's classroom and going grocery shopping for dinner!
Seriously, this book must have been written by a 7 yr old. The characters have no character. The supposed heroine is an airhead with no concept of reality. The story isn't only poorly written, but so predictable it's sad. It was a struggle to finish, but I like to think that I finish everything I start, so I persevered to the end. The editing is atrocious. There are tense shifts, missing words, extra words, and even misused words (access to mean assess). There's no emotion in the story even though the subject matter would suggest otherwise. I could go on, but then I'd be as bad as this story. Whew! Done.
At best the main character is an airhead, at worst she is an idiot. Her character is an Executive Chef, yet she goes grocery shopping THEN goes on long errands which require the food to be left in the hot vehicle. She knows she has a stalker, yet continues to go on long walks, alone, in the dark. I found myself having no sympathy for her because of all her stupid behavior. Then there is the "psychic" connection. That she has with her dog and unconscious husband that peripheral characters believe entirely too easily. I finished the book because I wanted to know who the stalker was and who would die.
I do not recommend this book. At all.... unless you just need something to read so that you can go to sleep without concern of actual character development or the story's content. It worked great as a sleeping pill for me.
Terrible. It’s very hard for me to give anything less than two stars when sometime takes the time and effort to write a novel. But, if I did, one star or zero stars is what I thought of this book. Sorry. This was the most boring read and I couldn’t wait until I was finished. The main character is a self centered, egotistical, immature woman who has no feelings, or they are superficial at best. Boring storyline. Unrealistic dialogue and just plain bad writing, in my opinion. Full of meaningless drivel and way too much explaining, so this book could have been half as long, or shorter.
The book started off good but ended up being a waste of my time. The main character was unlikeable - daft & out of touch with reality. She doesn't tell her husband about a stalker & doesn't tell her children about an important car accident. Then there's the whole "I communicate with my dog & husband telepathically" thing. What? Didn't know it was going to get so hippy dippy. I finished the book but skimmed through the last quarter. Not a great ending but at least I'm done with it.
One of the worst books I've ever read. The main character runs errands and waxes poetic about nonsensical things while her husband is in the ICU. She gets threatening letters and waits a day before reporting it to the police. All of this is while she is reading her dog's mind, maybe losing her baby, ignoring her children, and getting offended because her friend doesn't comment on her beautifully arranged sliced fruit plate. It's hard to even list the many ways this is just ridiculous. I got this book for free and paid too much.
This started off so well, with a well-written premise that had me engaged immediately. But it all went downhill half-way through the book, when the writer, for no obvious reason, inserted the main character's belief that her dog could communicate with her. Really? It was so bizarre, and so random, that I lost interest immediately. It's almost as if she had a change of heart half-way through writing the book, and decided that she didn't want it to be a suspense novel, but a silly book about a person who can read minds. And from then on, it was all about mind-reading.
