A review by chasingholden
The Shimmering State by Meredith Westgate

3.0

I wanted to love this book. The premise is incredible, like something out of a Black Mirror episode which is what made me want to read it in the first place. The writing was pretty decent but the book seemed to drag on anyway. There were several times I wanted to give up. There really is no one thing I can point out and say "heres where it went wrong" it just lacked the oomph to really grab my attention. Its a shame really, I feel there is so much untapped potential within the story. After all is said and done I'd rate this about a 3 or 3.5 star. Not terrible, but not for me either.

Thank you to netgalley and Meredith Westgate for providing an advance e-copy for my honest review.
