3.5
I liked it well enough, but I was also pretty bored by it.
I skimmed a lot because it felt like the story was going in circles and not going anywhere, even after finding the way out of those circles. I don't feel like I missed much either.
My initial guess at who the killer was incorrect, but surprisingly, the reasoning I had for the murder was correct.
The obsession with Bella was annoying. It sometimes felt like this SUBPLOT took up more of the page than the actual murder mystery.
Overall, it was good, just a bit too wordy for my liking.
