The Truth About Him: A Novel

The Truth About Him: A Novel - M. Timothy O'Keefe I found the character development and plot incredibly compelling-Annie's book is clearly the first & mostly focused on her growth. This is Dylan's book. Oddly, while I enjoyed the romance, I didn't find it half as compelling in either book as the actual plot & other characters. (I know, what gives?)

I really, really felt like this book was missing Joan.

That said, I would have maybe given this 3.5 or 4 had I felt a little more intrigued by the romance but that all seemed a foregone conclusion, particularly in the book. I may have given it that rating if the author didn't do that thing I find really jarring: 1st person then 3rd person from other MC POV. I don't know what to call that other than something I don't like.

I loved Dylan as a character and think he'll stick with me a bit more, and I think the family dynamic in this book was incredibly compelling. I will continue with the series, but on a borrowed basis...JUST for that POV thing.
