Review by readundancies - No Gods for Drowning

Did not finish book. Stopped at 19%.

For some reason this book was giving off the same kinda of vibes as The Ninth Rain by Jen Williams.

Now I liked The Ninth Rain for the most part, but it didn’t blow me away by any means, and I feel similarly about No Gods for Drowning.

So then why the DNF?

Because I went into it thinking it would be something other than what it was.

I thought there would be more buddy cop vibes.

There wasn’t.

I thought it would be more focused on the whole cat-and-mouse chase of the detectives trying to hunt for the serial killer.

There was a lot more focus on the romance instead. Which I wasn’t opposed to but I also didn’t pick this up for the romance, ya know?

And I dunno, the structure just wasn’t what I was expecting, OR what I was in the mood for.

I may revisit this in the future when I’m in a different mindset, but for now, wrong time, wrong book.
