Out of Body by Jeffrey Ford
3.0

I seen a few people receive an arc of this and became very intrigued so I decided to request it on Netgalley and got accepted for it. Ford's writing really sucked me in and I fell into this story. The main character was really bland and boring but had me intrigued due to him witnessing a murder. I wasn't sure on the actual premise of this story and was not expecting the turn it took which intrigued me a lot more.

Unfortunately, I felt like the tension and the stakes of this story were lacking. Once we come across the serial killer things moved way too quickly and I felt that it was very rushed.

Out of body was a really quick read and all in all a pretty okay read. Although this story was meh and not amazing but I definitely enjoyed Ford's writing style and would definitely pick up more from this author.
