A review by lyakimov
The Book of Cold Cases by Simone St. James
3.0
this book went a WAY different direction than I thought it would go.
First off, let me say that I thought it was pretty predictable. I guessed that Beth had a secret sister who committed the murders before Lily was even introduced. Also, anticlimactic as hell at the end. The build up was NOT done well. There was not enough suspense/tension, and the way things were discovered just did not keep me hooked on the story. I was just like “oh, whatever.”
Also……..why the HELL were there ghosts in this story??? What the hell is going on bruh that was so random and I was absolutely NOT expecting ghosts to be involved in this book. And they were introduced in such a weird way/had an odd part in the book, and I did not like the use of spirits as something to deepen the plot & move the story along. Personally, I did not enjoy the way it was engrained in the story but I thought the execution was fine.
I did not feel a huge connection to any of the characters, I did not particularly like or dislike any of them. I thought the romance on the side was fine but random. Michael just was not fleshed-out enough for me.
I did like the author’s writing style and I enjoyed how quick of a read the book was.
