This one is a DNF for me… got through a good chunk and was still just not interested at all. It’s very slow

Bit slow to get started, also some coarseness/crassness. Good characters, though, and love the relationship between Cal and Trey.

Boring as boring can get.
Plot summary: An ex-cop Cal Hooper now living peacefully in Ireland starts to investigate the disappearance of a teenager who went missing after his brother/sister asked him to help.
When I first started reading this, I thought it's gonna be something bigger, with some plot twists, some interesting characters, and a mystery revolving around the disappearance of a young man. But later the book just started to fade away for me, it was so boring because nothing really happens in this book. And that's a fact. This was my first book by Tana French and I'm so disappointed. Even until the ending, I've expected some big twist, but none of that has happened.

I have somewhat mixed feelings about this book. I think the concept is interesting and I like the main characters and how their relationships grew, but this book was a little too slow for me and I prefer a more twisty mystery. The ending was all right, but I don’t know if it was 100% satisfying for me. I would still recommend it if it’s up your alley just not sure if it was my cup of tea.
Slow burning, other people waiting for library copy
A little slow with a surprisingly lackluster ending. I enjoyed the writing style and I love the character, just didn't love the ending.
