I guess we’ll just have to agree to disagree on this one. As not only a reviewer, but also an editor for OBC, I strive to strictly adhere to the OBC review guidelines. No spoilers means no spoilers of any kind. And since a review is meant to be the reviewer’s commentary and opinions of the book, I keep my distance from producing reviews that are little more than regurgitated text. A review is not, and should never be, a book summary.Festus wrote: ↑30 Jul 2018, 16:55 On the other hand, Hartje’s audiences are kept in unwelcome form of suspense. Why would Ollie be murdered? What becomes of Zack’s ambition? These mind-boggling curiosities and legitimate questions are supposed to be captured even within the context of review brevity. Furthermore, what is Candle Room? What does Candle Room symbolically or literally represent in the work. So many questions begging for answers. Great review all the same.
I suppose our differing styles are what makes the world go round. Thank you for your thoughtful commentary!
