The Boyfriend
by Freida McFadden
dark
mysterious
tense
fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Strong character development:
No
Loveable characters:
No
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
The only reason this isn’t a 5 is because the main character, Sydney, was one of the most obnoxious characters I’ve ever read in a book! She as slated as almost 35 but I would swear she was actually 22. In the end I did feel some sense of pity and sympathy for her though and liked her ending. Having the story go back and forth between her and Tom was so interesting! And it worked well. Tom was a mysterious character that was hard to crack. Is her a serial killer or is he wildly misunderstood? Guess you’ll have to read it to find out!
