Review: Inconsistencies
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 04 23, 2012
I gave this book four stars because as a stand-alone book this story was excellent. The emotions run the gamut from funny to sad to excited, but when the three books in the series are read in order, one right after the other, some things made me stop and think "Huh? Waitaminnit!"In the first book, Bluestone Homecoming, Leo's son Max was eight years old when Trinity became pregnant. In Leaving Bluestone, Trinity has her baby nine months later and Max jumped right over nine and turned ten.In Bluestone Song,Linda calls someone in a panic when her sister is assaulted, and later it's revealed that she called her brother Adam. When the girls were discharged from the hospital they were given a ride home by Maddox. In the third book Quinn said that Linda called him, and Adam was leaving to go get the girls from the hospital.In Leaving, when Lilly's parents arrived for the holidays her mother told her that Lilly's brother Will and his wife Janice were en route with their kids, yet when her brother and sister-in-law arrived their names had changed to Scott and JoAnne.These inconsistencies were probably only picked up because I read them one right after the other, without any other books interrupting the flow. If I had the option of half stars I would have given this book four and a half.
