A review by swisarmygrl
Turn of Mind by Alice LaPlante

2.0

In addition to not really enjoying a single character, I felt this was a slow and uninteresting read. For a book considered to be a murder mystery, there was nothing leading me to the edge of my seat beckoning me to read on. Also, I feel when working with a subject matter as depressing as dementia, the author needs to work even harder at the above elements for readers to endure experiencing such an awful condition. The fact that the author at least captured the ability to give a better understanding of what it must feel like to have dementia is the only reason why this book received two stars instead of barely one.
