The Black Sheep by Sophie McKenzie

1.0

Wasn’t sure about this book due to the many bad reviews here, but I decided to give it a go anyway. The bad reviews are spot on - this book is dull, slow, and predictable. Very nearly DNF but I kept going just to see if it would improve (it didn’t). The main twist is interesting, but I saw it coming from a mile off. The book seems far too long and is overly descriptive about mundane things.

Fran was thoroughly unlikeable by the end of the novel. The way she reacts to Lucy’s rape just didn’t sit right with me - she didn’t seem all that shocked or upset to find out the culprit.

I could go on and on about the things I disliked about this book, but I would be here all day.
