dancingdane 's review for:
Mayhem
by Sarah Pinborough
This was a LONG read for me. Part of it is not the fault of the book, but more that I've been listening to more books than reading; this was also not available on the kindle (at least through my library), so I could only read it on my phone or computer. But, it just didn't grab me. I had recently watched Ripper Street and another Jack-the-Ripper-era book ([b:The Yard|13056152|The Yard (Scotland Yard's Murder Squad, #1)|Alex Grecian|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1327151978l/13056152._SY75_.jpg|18221243] and [b:The Blue Girl|18038937|The Blue Girl (Scotland Yard's Murder Squad, #2.5)|Alex Grecian|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1370339971l/18038937._SX50_.jpg|25311445]), so maybe I was Victorian-Londoned out. I found the narrative to drag and just never got absorbed by it the way other stories grabbed me.
The book is probably 2.5 stars, but I had to round down because of the lack of grabbing. It was interesting enough to want to finish, but not a page turner.
