A review by mullemit
The Paying Guests by Sarah Waters

Did not finish book. Stopped at 61%.
I feel cheated, I’m honestly so annoyed.
I don’t like murder stories, I think it’s overdone, it’s not suspenseful to me, it’s gross and deeply uninteresting. And I did not see it coming in this story which makes it so much worse, because I was enjoying the social suspense, the slow portrayal of 1920s expectations of women, and now I don’t want to continue the book, because this “twist” changes everything.

The only other thing I have to add, is that I think Sarah Waters majorly stepped up her dialogue-game with this book, too bad I won’t be finishing it.
