A review by bookishbrighton
The Trees by Percival Everett

4.0

To me this felt like 2 different books merged together - the first half proper gave me the heebie jeebies and is what made it a 4 star. The second half was still good but sometimes felt a bit repetitive and long winded - the introduction of so many law enforcement characters overwhelmed me a bit and then it turned out their names weren’t even relevant. The second half was more like a 3 star but overall it did keep me gripped and I was dying to finish it to find out what happened. A really interesting read - gets you thinking for sure!
