Run Time by Catherine Ryan Howard
2.0
1.5 stars.
So many words for so little story. Nothing happened. I was promised murder, there was one, sort of murder but not really. The whole book was the ramblings of the main character as she reasoned out every decision she made in fine detail, in triplicate. There’s a ton of running through the woods. Boring. This author can write, don’t get me wrong but this was not a story, it was a writing exercise. And so many words that say nothing. If your reading time is precious, spare it for another book.
