From the beginning of the book, I already knew I wasn’t going to like this. I did not like the author’s writing style at all. This is the only book I’ve read from him, and I’m not sure I’ll be reading more. If I wasn’t reading it for book club, I honestly don’t know if I would’ve finished it.
The plot twists were all over the place, and we didn’t really get any actually useful information until the last few chapters. It felt like it was purposely drawn out just to make the story last a little longer. None of the characters motivations really made sense to me when we found out what happened. Their choices at the end didn’t make sense.
2.5 only because I did want to find out what happened - and I really considered just flipping to the end to find out because the story dragged so much.
