A review by slimepuppy
Midnight on Beacon Street by Emily Ruth Verona

dark mysterious tense slow-paced

• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

2.0

Slow, repetitive, uninteresting. I had high hopes for this book, but it only let me down. The non linear narrative felt unnecessary, the plot was fairly predictable and none of the characters felt special. The main character is just anxious, that's it, that's the character!

Some of the beginning of the book was actually a little creepy, though - before the plot started happening.
