A review by gwalt118
Boundary Waters by William Kent Krueger

4.0

I got up early to finish this book today before work, so obviously I love this series.

William Kent Krueger does such a fantastic job of sucking me into his novels with a strong sense of place, keeping me intrigued with the mystery plotline, and captivating me with his characters. I was propelled to finish the novel because I needed to know what happened with the mystery element (obviously), but I also needed to know what the next step was going to be for Cork & Jo's struggling marriage. Krueger wraps up what he needs to wrap up at the end of this novel and keeps other elements of the subplots open ended for future installments in this series.

More than anything else, Krueger makes me love Minnesota - my second home - even more. I need to go to the Boundary Waters at some point in my life (preferably soon...but in the summer) after reading this novel. I'm not a camper by any means, but Krueger made me want to camp in the Boundary Waters. That's saying something.

On to book #3 in this amazing series...
