They are not the first women lost to these dark waters, but their deaths disturb the river and its history, dredging up secrets long submerged. Earlier in the summer, a vulnerable teenage girl met the same fate. “A single mother turns up dead at the bottom of the river that runs through town. That being said, I couldn’t help give this book four of out of five stars because to me it lacked the oomph of a fantastic book. But it is nothing like Girl on the Train, not that Paula Hawkins ever claimed it to be similar. Overall, I enjoyed the book and there was one twist in particular that was moving. Despite remembering parts of it, I started again from page one and I read it in a day. Over a year later, I decided to give it a second chance. There are a lot of characters and after reading a third of the book, I ended up putting it down, bored. The first time I tried to read it, I was mostly reading on my commute to work. It was the first book I read with so many twists, and I was super excited to read more by Paula Hawkins. My first, of course, was Girl on the Train. Into the Water by Paula Hawkins is the second book I’ve read by this author.
