No More Words by Kerry Lonsdale
3.0
(updated)
No More Words is written in the third person, and admittedly I believe it is a difficult point of view in which to write. In this particular case, I think the story suffers for it.
Instead of having insights into the main character’s thoughts that might make me sympathetic towards her, I felt detached from Olivia. In truth, I didn’t really like her that much. It made it hard to root for her. Actually, there are very few unlikeable characters.
The beginning of the book intrigued me, but the longer the mystery drags on the less interested I became. By the time I got some solid-ish answers, it felt anti-climactic.
Questions are left unanswered in the end, but I was ready for the story to be over so I didn’t mind. I just found out that this is book one in a trilogy. A trilogy, ya’ll! I think I’ve had enough though.
