The Taking of Annie Thorne by C.J. Tudor
3.0
This is my second book from CJ Tudor and again it was a meh book. When I started this I couldn't help but roll my eyes. The main character from this book and The Chalk Man are the same character! Both are English teachers in their 40's, single, has a huge secret and a serious drinking problem.
Although there is a bunch of similarities between Tudor's two novels there are also some differences too. The Taking of Annie Thorne has more speculative and paranormal twists to this story which was quite refreshing to read about.
Again I did not care about any of these characters. This review probably sounds like my review from The Chalk Man but the ending again made it a 3 star instead of a 2 star.
Another difference this book had a much darker theme and a very dark and chilling atmosphere. I wasn't impressed with the decisions Tudor made with our main characters thoughts and opinions on " Little Miss Scary " a barmaid who is on the spectrum.
Although the twists toward the end were surprising I found the ending anticlimactic and I have been left with a lot of unanswered questions which is frustrating.
