A review by ciciwilkie
Bonfire by Krysten Ritter
4.0
This was a pretty good debut. I enjoyed the writing style and the book itself had this nostalgic feel. We all can relate to returning to our hometown after leaving. In this way it really reminded me of Gillian Flynn's Sharp Objects, there were some difference but the main theme is a girl returning to her small hometown after gaining life in a big city to solve a mystery that encompasses the past and present.
I will say I liked this better than Sharp Objects. The audiobook was wonderful and Sharp Objects was soo dark and disturbing I felt like it was trying too hard, where this book was just the right amount.
I did feel like it dragged at times but otherwise I really enjoyed this.
I will definitely check out one of Krysten Ritter's next books, and would recommend this book.
