This Town Sleeps by Dennis E. Staples

4.0

I wish I had known going in that this book didn't tell the story in a linear way since I could have better prepared for it. It was a good one but the sudden changes of PoV were unexpected based on everything I had heard about it. That's not a bad thing but again I like forewarning in things like that. The strings that were left dangling and never resolved were also a bit frustrating since I am one who enjoys as absolute resolutions that you can get.

All that said it was enjoyable. It wasn't fast paced necessarily, but the story was engaging enough to keep you drawn in. I can understand those who said they started it just to get a feel in it and a few hours later they were done. I also liked the realistic ending in terms of Marion's relationship with Shannon, which is all I will say on that because I don't want to give spoilers.

The author is very good at their craft and I would definitely read more by them. Just go in knowing it's going to be a good but bumpy ride.
