cristinamv00 's review for:

Magpie Murders by Anthony Horowitz
3.75
dark mysterious fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Must read for fans of whodunnits. The text constantly nods to Agatha Christie in its first half but takes a sharp turn in tone and style in the second half. I think it’s rare for two (such different) halves of a book to be so hooking but I found this to be the case here
