I want to start with the positives: I loved Christie’s first book The Rehearsals and I was so excited to get an arc of this one. However, what I loved about her first book was really missing for me in this second one.
This felt very off pace to me. The entire first 1/2 felt very slow, very off, then bam we had some action and a fun story line, then it ended. The ending literally was just there. All of a sudden. Over.
I needed more in the ending - it needed more development before we got there and the opening half could have been condensed.
I never connected with the characters, even though I so badly wanted to.
