A review by missberlyreads
The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins

3.0

Although this was a thrilling read it doesn't add anything new to the mystery/thriller/suspense genre. Again we see the multiple narrators, the unreliable narrators, the unlikeable characters, the troubled marriage(s), the victimized woman/women, and etc. Clearly these tropes continue to draw the readers, but I'm ready for the book that will finally go beyond the GONE GIRL comparisons. Also, I totally guessed about THAT connection very early on - another overused trope. Despite the lack of creativity I did want to keep reading. It's a good snow day read. If you don't get to it this winter, save it for the beach.
