Little Star by John Ajvide Lindqvist
3.0

I enjoy Lindqvist's writing style, but the story line was severely lacking here for me. The first half or so of the novel was great - captivating, eerie, unsettling, everything you'd expect. But once the story developed, it lost its focus and meandered between multiple angsty teenage characters with little to no point. I'm not sure what Lindqvist was trying to get across in the latter half of the book and the constant violence became tiring and lost its impact. All in all, this book just didn't do it for me.
