hbusarah 's review for:

Parents Weekend by Alex Finlay

2.0

---

This was my first Alex Finlay book and unfortunately, I see why I haven't pushed myself to pick up his books before. While I feel like the author had big plans for this novel, the concepts fell flat for me. It felt like there were these big reveals with nothing in between. I also didn't feel attached to any of the characters and there were times I had a hard time differentiating who was who because none of them had huge personalities, just different job descriptions. There were just so many characters that it was hard to keep track of who was who thoughout this novel. The only saving grace for me was that this book was super fast paced and an easy read. I would recommend this more for someone who is getting into thrillers over someone who is a well-seasoned reader of them. Overall, it was fine and I don't think I'll be rushing to read more from this author.
