cliobemuzedbookworm 's review for:
Red Sparrow
by Jason Matthews
It was fast-paced and that is perhaps the best thing I can say about it. I felt like the most interesting part of the novel came in the first half and then the novel just lost my attention. I was no longer as invested, started to feel like the plot started to become too cliché. What mostly bottered me was the omniscient narrator style. This definitely does not suit a spynovel in my opinion. I think the book could've improved greatly already just from a change of narrator. We don't need to know the characters' thoughts, a spy novel should be mysterious, enigmatic, should leave you wondering.
Will probably read the next one, just because it does draw you in, so I do want to know what comes next for these characters, but it will remain no more than a quick read to me.
