A review by dianafinch
Death and Croissants by Ian Moore
1.0
Some of the jokes were almost funny so at some point I debated giving this two stars. But then I spent the entire book rooting for the death of the main character (what an utterly unlikeable man) and the reveal was so unrealistic that I decided against it.
Maybe it’s because I had to force myself to keep reading this and not check my phone every two pages, but the story and especially the reveal made absolutely no sense to me. What did the swingers add to the story? Why was the mafia involved? What was the need to make Valerie a freaking bounty hunter? WHO KILLED THE DAMN CHICKEN?
This was worse than a Netflix original movie and the worst thing is that this could’ve gone
somewhere logical and better if the author had thought about any of it for more than five seconds. But unfortunately, he didn’t.
