A review by claudia_is_reading
Moonflower Murders by Anthony Horowitz
2.5
Yep, I still have issues with the structure even while I'm enjoying both stories (yes, I'm annoying like that), although that wasn't the case here. And, please, give me a break! Andreas has become the titular knight-in-shinning-armour and I truly dislike him. Susan seems to think that having him following her to England is a good thing and I strongly disagree. Not that she would give a toss about it, mind you :P
But! I liked the main mystery a lot even when the resolution was dragged out for too long. This is, in part, because I wasn't invested, at all, in the Pündt's story. As a matter of fact, I dislike its main character even more than I dislike Andreas. And I resent Horowits' portrait of gay characters which are either morally corrupt and/or frankly disgusting.
I might read the next novel because I like Susan... but it'd take me a while.
