"I have never seen my father cry before-- not when his own father died, not when my mother ran off and left us, not even when he first heard about our sister, Camille. But he is crying now. He is crying without shame. The tears cascade down his face in a freefall. The sobs echo from the trees," (Coben).
The paragraph above is probably the most interesting paragraph from The Woods so far. The reason I like the paragraph so much is because it leaves the reader with many questions. Why is he crying? Has he done something wrong or evil? Most likely, the answer is yes. So far, Harlan Coben has done a fantastic job of leaving me with questions to ponder about while I am not reading. His style of writing is very suspenseful. The Woods is one of the best-written books that I have ever read. I can't wait to finish and see how the story unfolds in the end.
