Murder in the Family by Cara Hunter
2.0

This book was actually so hard to read. If I didn't read it with a friend I would not have finished it. It was a script but it didn't make sense because the movie was like a documentary, with interviews, which you can't write a script for because you can't anticipate what they'll say?? I don't know if I'm just not down with the movie kids but it did not make sense at all. I got used to it, though.

Second worst part was when episode one was sooooooooooooooo long and for what?? It didn't help me fix the characters in my head and it didn't do any character building and was just too much background in my opinion.

Also, when it released that the director had chosen everyone specifically because it was so obvious that that wasn't a secret.

After page 239, it finally started getting interesting. After this I was hooked. We finally had the information, we had the motives we should've had, and the information was coming out like a real investigation.

I was SO surprised. I thought it was Maura from the beginning, but I didn't see the side pieces, the brothers and sisters, or the other two little kids Catherine had playing into it AT ALL. Especially not Guy. But it made sense.

After 239, it was good. Before, I wish I had my time back. Honestly I think I would've done fine just skipping to episode 3 because due to the flashbacks, I would've had the information I needed anyways.
