Summary: RIVETING READ!!
Comment: Carla Neggers is one of my favotite authors, and I can't wait for her books to come out! I couldn't put KISS THE MOON down. I loved how the old mystery affected the characters, each memorable in their own right. Carla can capture the setting and ambiance of a location better than any other author. In KISS THE MOON, she puts you right in maple syrup, country inns and and flannel country. The romance between Penelope and Wyatt is teriffic. I found myself cheering for Harriet, too. And just when you think you've figured out what had happened, Carla throws in a surprise. She's at her best in this book. I also loved her CLAIM THE CROWN!

Summary: Kiss The Moon Goodbye
Comment: Great? Entertaining? Suspenseful Read? Rocked My World? What book did you people read? Because the book I read wasn't anything close to suspenseful let alone entertaining. And if this is Glendale, CA's "Favorite Book", I suggest Glendale hit the bookstore!
The plot was lame, and the characters were obnoxious. And like Wyatt, I learned more about maple syrup than I ever wanted to know. I'd suggest Cold Ridge or The Harbor if you want to read a good book by Ms. Neggers.

Summary: No Sensible Plot
Comment: I recently read Ms Neggers' book The Harbor, enjoyed it so much I went out and bought 3 more of her books, BIG MISTAKE. I read the reviews of Kiss the Moon and figured another winner, not so.
The story is based on the plot that quirky irrepressible Penelope finds a 45 year old crashed plane. She is under the impression that the crash victims are still within. So, she does what every adventuresome person would do. First, she alerts the media and then, "Oh my goodness!" she retracts her statement because she doesn't want the town's hermit nor her not as adventuresome but equally quirky cousin to come into the limelight. Never mind that everyone and their mother knows of both.
Okay, let's say I buy this premise but wait there's more. The nephew of one crash victim comes to town to find his missing uncle. Does our heroine show any compassion? No, she's still hung up on saving the privacy of a hermit she isn't even sure is nonthreatening. But she has her reasons because said nephew is a SINCLAIR. Now so far the reader has learned that Sinclairs are thrill and adventure seekers....oh how diabolical, so of course Penelope and the rest of the residents regard them as people of dubious reputation and I guess not having the same emotions as "normal" people. I mean really why would the Sinclair family want to bring home the body of a loved one especially when Penelope has determined the forest is a great resting place.
So enough already, this book was a complete disappointment. How anyone could consider Penelope anything but irritating is beyond me. Get over the constant reminder by the author that she was spoiled as a child, that's suppose to be a legitimate excuse?
The final insult to the reader's intellect is on page 359 (paperback ed.) when Harriet is referred to as Wyatt's half sister, I don't think so...do the genealogy here.
I'm as happy as the next person to escape into a good suspense this was neither.
