The Mermaids Singing by Val McDermid

dark tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? No

3.0

I don’t know if I wasn’t in the right mood or what, but the plot just felt very one note to me. There were a couple twists but nothing was that shocking. Took me a while to read because I never got that absorbed.
