The Man from Primrose Lane by James Renner

4.0

This book is DEFINITELY not what you think it is when you first start reading it. You're like "ah, a nice straightforward mystery novel about a guy who wears mittens and gets killed."

But shit starts getting super-weird pretty fast. Inexplicable events start happening that make you think either the author isn't good at his job or something is up.

Turns out something is up.

And if you're reading carefully, you can figure out what that something is at least 50 pages before the twist is revealed.

Unfortunately, I can't talk too much about what happens in this book, but I can say it's very plot-driven and page-turner-y. The characterization is lacking, probably because the author was trying to nail down this twisty plot, but other than that, I really recommend this book.
