Hummingbird Salamander by Jeff VanderMeer
2.0

This one was very disappointing, probably because I had my expectations too high. The main character was extremely unlikeable and not very believable. Her background felt contrived and she treated other characters abominably. The other characters were not well-rounded, mostly being generic stereotypes and/or over-the-top. It all read like a Hollywood thriller. Maybe that’s all the author wanted it to be, but I was hoping for something more.
