Blue Diary by Alice Hoffman
3.0
This is the first novel I had read by Alice Hoffman and judging by the blurbs for her other books it will probably be the only one. I'm not too keen on books based on fantasy and magical happenings.
This book was enjoyable enough. Plotting the story of a perfect husband who's past catches up with him and proves he isn't quite as perfect after all. Due to the crime he committed his young son goes off the rails and doesn't want to know and his wife is disgusted, especially after meeting the victim's family. The book was a bit too soap opera-ey for me, bit to far fetched. The characters were interesting enough but haven't stayed with me after reading the book.
