Summary: Can I only give it 5 stars?
Review: How can this book get any negative reviews? I absolutely loved it. Didn't want it to end even though I wanted to know who the Owl was. In my opinion, this is one of Ms. Clark's best. I can hardly wait for her next one.

Summary: Pleasantly surprised
Review: I used to love Mary Higgins Clark, but in the last few books she has written, the conclusion is so predictable that the storyline, even if it's appealing, is a drag because there are no exciting twists and turns. "Nighttime is My Time" is different though. While it took me awhile to get the hang of all the characters, I thoroughly enjoyed the different red herrings that were thrown in, and for the first time in a long time, I didn't have the story completely figured out before I got to the final chapters. While the ending is a bit anticlimatic, it still left me surprised, which I will give credit to MHC for. As another reviewer noted, other favorite authors have produced horrible books this past year -- John Grisham, Patricia Cornwell, James Patterson -- so to find a book that didn't leave me angry is considered a success!

Summary: Long-winded Tale
Review: It was disappointed with Mary Higgins Clark latest novel Nightime Is My Time. This was the cast of too many characters and not enough plot. By the time I finished reading it. i didn't care about who the killer was or anything else. Hopefully the next will be better.

Summary: Nighttime is a Waste of Time
Review: Too many characters, some of which had more than one name, made this book very confusing. Not only that, it was down right boring. I found myself skpping paragraphs, something I have NEVER before done with a MHC book, just to finish the thing. Such a shame, MHC used to be an auto-buy for me, but I think in the future I'll wait for the library copy.

Summary: A Good Read!
Review: There were some amazing characters in this book and I enjoyed the book immensely. It was hard to put down once I started reading. This is one of my favorite MHC books. I highly recommend it. Debbie Farmer, parenting author of 'Don't Put Lipstick on the Cat'

Summary: Finally! A Book with a Plot!
Review: If you read the reviews I have written on John Grisham's and James Patterson's latest novels, you can understand why I was thrilled to pick up a mystery novel that has a plot! I have started rejecting books by any well-known author. Publishers force them to crank out several books a year. The end result are books that have the texture of cotton candy."Nighttime is My Time" is not Clark's best work, but I will take it any day over the trash other authors have been spewing. The book has enough red herrings to keep you guessing. It is a quick, easy read, as well. On the other hand, I would have liked to have seen a few more pages. There are so many characters/suspects that you need more time with each one than she provided. They needed fleshing out. It is a good beach or bubble bath book. Not all books have to be the end all of novels. If you need to relax and mentally get away for awhile, this book will do well.

Summary: This book is fantastic!
Review: I can't believe the negative reviews I've read. This is one of Higgins Clark's finest suspenses, keeping you guessing until the end. Sure, there are lots of suspects. That's what makes it so fun trying to figure exactly who the killer is! FIVE STARS--

Summary: Nightime is a Good Time
Review: There were some amazing characters in this book, but they weren't the main characters -- Jake, the highschool reporter; Sam, the cop; Alice, the first victim's mother and the old guy at the store. The honorees lacked flavor pretty much, but the plot was pretty good. I enjoyed the book immensely. Had the killer been someone other than who it was, made the difference in a 3-star rating and a 4-star rating. I was a bit let down by a romance that should have developed and didn't. This will make my favorite MHC list, but it won't be at the top.

Summary: Not Her Best Work
Review: I did not feel that this book was at all close to Mary Higgins Clark's best. There were too many possible candidates for The Owl, and none of them were very well drawn. I also found his motivation to be implausible for the havoc he wreaked and the number of lives he claimed. I must admit to liking some of the peripheral characters, particularly Sam, but I didn't really care for Laura or even Jean all that much. I realize the event in Jean's past was traumatic, but in 20 years she should have been able to come to grips with it better. Perhaps the next book will have characters I can relate to better. I hope so.

Summary: Where was the editor?????
Review: This book has finally brought Mary Higgins Clark to the lowest point of her career.
The author that held us all in suspense with "Where are the children" has resorted to the use of superfluous language to fill a book that wouldn't be accepted by Harlequin Romances.
As an example. A 29 word sentence to describe flicking on a light switch? That's not including the sentence that proceeded it, that had the character flick on the light switch.
This book was a waste of money. Now I intend to stop wasting my time. Four days to read 165 pages. Once I would stay up all night to finish a M H C novel. This one is just too tiresome. Mrs. Larry Crommett
