Kala by Colin Walsh
3.5
adventurous dark hopeful mysterious sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Was a solid 4+ stars for probably the first 90%.

Loved the character development and story in general, great slow build. Hoooooowever, while the twists/reveals were good, as the pace picked up towards the very end, I felt the writing style lost its uniqueness and read like your standard crime novel, which isn’t really my thing. 

Also something evolved in the tone and portrayal of the girl and women characters to make me become keenly aware that it was written by a man. Something to think on a bit more for me…

Did a mix of audio and physical book and both were really good formats.

Lots of love from the founding president of the Mush fan club xoxo
