lady_l 's review for:

The Orphanage By The Lake by Daniel G. Miller

Liked this but didn’t I love it. I hard a hard time connecting to the main character. I think she felt a little like a caricature instead of a real person. I felt her friendships/relationships a little hard to get behind too. 

But I liked the investigation itself, up until the ending which felt like a lot all at once. And pretty much what I guessed. But the steps taken to get there kept me interested and rooting for Hazel. 

I’d probably give the next one a try to see if once the series gets going it feels a little bit more organic.
