A review by ylbirda
Mimik by Sebastian Fitzek

challenging dark sad tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

I swore to myself not to read any more of Fitzeks books, as they are disgustingly descriptive and there is definitely something wrong with someone who can put something like that on paper book after book. Yet I read about Mimic and was intrigued. Per chance I got my hands on it. 
The pace is solid and Fitzek knows how to write a page turner. The end was a bit too harsh, I could’ve done without the last few pages.
