A review by biblioghost
The May Queen Murders by Sarah Jude

3.0

Update: Tried it again as the premise just kept calling to me...and again felt the same. I'm not sure why I didn't like this other than the inconsistent characterization. It had all of the elements I usually love, but I just didn't and I admit I skimmed the last third of the book.

I really loved this story in the beginning. I loved the small mountain town setting and the superstitions of the townspeople. The closed off community made for a very unsettling feeling which I was definitely digging. But I found myself not caring much for what was happening to the characters.
