Little Star by John Ajvide Lindqvist
2.0

This was a tricky book for me to both finish and review.
I first tried reading this a few years ago and stopped about halfway through.
The same thing happened this time around, but I kept going after a few weeks, because I figured out what the issue was:
Theres is such an enigmatic mystery that I wanted to learn more about her, about her origins and that NEVER happens, especially when the perspective changes to Theresa at that midpoint.
It was interesting to read about a born psychopath alongside a girl who develops into one, but again, this wasn't really explored.
Also, while I love the horror genre, violence just for the sake of violence doesn't really appeal to me, even if some well-placed ABBA music did give me chills...
