Big Ben by Nana Malone

3.0

Thanks to the publisher for an ARC to read and give my honest opinion. My first by this author and although the blurb sucked me in, the book was awkward. Toby is the reason for pretty much everything that happens in this book but the author doesn’t really give us Toby. So it’s hard to latch on to an idea with really no idea why everyone should love Toby and want justice.

What did I like? Olivia was hard to explain as well... her issues. Breaking the statue, being stuck in the closet, horrible boyfriend, issues with her boyfriends employer....to dealing with her mother’s ashes and her lack of feeling. I seem to be at a disadvantage since I’m the minority reviewing this book. It just didn’t work for me I guess.

Would I recommend or buy? Personally, no. I seem to be the only person not able to get into this book and this is a first by this author. I’m not a fan of James Bond type stuff.

Thoughts for the author? Congratulations on your new release! I’m glad so many of your readers loved it.
