The Woman in the Window by A. J. Finn

Anna Fox is a recluse, an agraphob and an alcoholic. She spends her days/nights watching TV, looking out her window at her neighbors and chatting online.

When her newest neighbors move in her life takes an interesting turn after she witnesses a  horrible event take place.  She is made to question did she in fact witness such act or imagine it. To make matters worse no one believes her and as things continue to become more and more suspect she questions herself further.

This book was a bit of a slow start for me and can be rather confusing until you get it all straightened out in your head. Anna isn't always a likable character but that is also one of my favorite things some authors do because they make them more "real".

The set up --- the first half of the novel is mediocre at best but then second half more than makes up for it with all  the twists, turns and reveals.

 I found, that I was by far more interested in the Anna of before than the present day.  I think there is a bigger and better story to be told there. I wouldn't rule this book out as a read but be prepared for a bit of a struggle before you can get to the good stuff.
