Lyrebird by Jane Caro
4.0
challenging dark mysterious tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: N/A
Loveable characters: N/A
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Really interesting plot for a book and I wondered where this was going and how it would be resolved when I read the first couple of chapters. The final chapters were gripping, and in particular the descriptions of a bushfire scene were horrifying and I felt like I was in the thick of it. 

Great to have women characters central to the plot(s) and I hope we see more of Megan in future books. I feel like I need to get to know her more.
