drey72's review against another edition
1.0
I only made it about halfway through this 528-page tome before I lost interest in its story. The premise was very interesting, and I expected it to be engrossing, at the very least. The beginning did not disappoint, with the introduction of Madeline and Ethan, and their jaunt to meet up with a possessed woman and a dead body. Following closely on its heels is an introduction to the LeBlanc children, who run from their home in the bayou to the dark and dangerous New Orleans.
The river devils, Madeline’s family dysfunction, Ethan’s wavering support, all play a part in Madeline’s slow-but-certain mental unraveling at the hands – or should I say mind games? – of her brother Zenon. And never mind her grandmother Chloe – I didn’t stay long enough to figure if she helped or hindered, and the parts I did read didn’t get around to clearing that up.
The Tangled Bridge wasn’t quite my cup of tea, but maybe it’s yours. If you’ve read it and loved it, please comment below with the link to your review.
