 After the middle bit I was not interested in the story at all and I really didn't wanted to continue but I kept going since it's such a short book. I'm glad that I continued since after that backstory bit it picked up the pace which made the story a lot better in the end. So even though some parts were really boring I liked the story in the end but not as much as other murder mystery books.
