A review by monsieurbearr
The Boy Who Followed Ripley by Patricia Highsmith

3.0

I dont really know what to think about this one. Something I have found about these novels is that Tom has changed quite dramatically, and that he certainly isn't the Tom we met in #1. This change seems both natural and unnatural, and in a way, I miss the old, sly, kineving Tom.

The last two books have been focused a lot more on side characters, with Tom becoming himself mostly a side character, being involved mostly indirectly, I would prefer a more focused Tom story.

However, despite all this, I enjoyed this book, and I am looking forward to finishing this series with book #5.
