Dig Two Graves by Gretchen McNeil

Thank you to NetGalley and Disney for the ARC of this book in exchange for a review.
I really wanted to like this more than I did. The book opens with an interesting premise and a big question in the air, so I assumed as it went forward, it would keep with the pace and reveal. However, as it moved forward, I found myself less engaged and more annoyed with the characters than anything else.
I really wanted to like Neve, but I didn't. I just was not able to connect with her, which is why it was harder to stay on board as the plot moved forward. The rest of the characters were not much better either. It felt as if the author didn't understand each enough to have them well developed and solidified in the story.
I also felt like there were a lot of plot holes. Things would take place and I'd be looking back to see what I may have missed or not understood, but was never able to clear it up. I don't want to go into too many specifics as it is a thriller, but I felt it wasn't well developed.
Overall, this is just a meh reading for me. More of a 2.5 than a 3, but the beginning made me round up.
