abbyaddison 's review for:
The Secret Place
by Tana French
I have loved all of Tana French's previous books in this series, but was a little disappointed by this one. As a disclaimer, I listened to this one as an audiobook rather than reading it on paper, and I think some of her writing does not translate well to being read aloud, especially the choppier dialogue. There were so many descriptive passages that it became a bit repetitive at times, and all the action (excluding the flashbacks) occurred over the course of one very long, drawn-out day. That said, she did an extraordinary job of painting the main characters' inner lives, thought processes, and relationships, and the killer reveal was a surprise. Even after the killer was revealed, the confession was a bit drawn-out too. I have a feeling the next book will focus on Conway - and I'll be reading it!
