Testimony

I have just finished the book TESTIMONY by Anita Shreve. This is truly an excellent read. I find the writing style a little different because it is written like the title claim almost like the characters in the book are relating their testimony to you. The surprise like ending to the story didn't come as to much of a surprise to me but seeing it coming didn't take anything away from the story. I like the fact that the story unfolds from all angles and it's not about blame. In the end who was right and who was wrong doesn't matter because what happened happened. I think that is often how reality unfolds so it just makes the story easier to understand. I have read several of Anita Shreve's books but I think this is one of her best yet. I will recommend it to my friends.
