What Big Teeth by Harry Szabo
1.0
So this was one of my most anticipated books of the year, from cover to premise I was down. But it was ill paced, lacked character depth, good prose, or a satisfying ending. All that saying, I do look forward to see what else Rose Szabo writes in the future as the bare bones were good and they did a good job of making me want to continue and figure out the mystery even when I was frustrated with how the tools were utilized to tell the story.
Also the complete drop of one star was the screwed up love octagon with Arthur and EVERY single member of the Zarrin family, from grandparents, to fathers, cousins, sisters, main character. Like I can swallow the strangeness of siblings romancing the same person, even though that's still a little incesty to me, it's another thing when the grandmother, grandfather, father, cousin, and sister are all trying to get in the same guy's pants. And that her love interest knew her as a child, and slept with both of her grandparents before her father was born. Nope. Nope. Just please no.
