3.0
Some of the dialogue and interactions were quite cheesy as well, especially between Joe and Gloria & Joe and Brendan. Not sure how I felt about her portrayal of Brendan as an Irish man constantly saying “feck” ALL the time. Is this Father Ted?
I will say this book was a page-turner. It kept me engaged enough, but overall the execution disappointed me. A shame because I remember really liking The Chalk Man when I read it!
