The Debt & The Doormat by Laura Barnard
3.0
I’ve read most of Laura Barnard’s work and have found them to be addictive stories that I’m happy to power through, stories that have me laughing with the antics that occur. I’ve been curious about The Debt & The Doormat for a while and was happy to dive into it to see what this one would offer.
I’ll be honest and say this isn’t my favourite book from the author. It has me hooked and curious to see how the pieces came together, but it didn’t have the level of laughter that some of the author’s other books have offered. Sure, there were some moments when I was laughing. Mostly, I found things were a bit much. A lot happened in this one, and I feel I would have enjoyed it more if there hadn’t been quite so much mayhem in the story – as it was, everything seemed to happen and it lessened the impact of the events.
Although not my favourite from the author, it does have me curious to see what happens to the characters in the next book.
