Velvet Was the Night by Silvia Moreno-Garcia

dark mysterious slow-paced

2.0

unfortunately this just didn’t click for me. all the elements were there — i love a mystery, i love stuff set in the 70s, i love all the music references, but the plot just never seemed to go anywhere. i don’t mind a slow burn mystery/thriller but the pay off has to be worth the build up and this just wasn’t. i struggled to connect with the two main characters and i think maybe their paths should’ve crossed a lot more than they did since i spent the first half wondering why there was a dual pov of unrelated characters.
