The Killer in Me by Olivia Kiernan
3.0
I didn’t read the first book that follows Frankie so while I may have been missing some background information, it was still possible to read without feeling completely lost.
This book follows Frankie as she investigates a new set of murders while also looking into murders from the past. For all the action that happens I did find that the beginning was slow, it was also difficult to follow at times as the writing tended to jump from one place to another a few times. I found the characters we were following didn’t have a lot of personality, were difficult to connect with and weren’t really memorable.
Pros:
the writing does keep you guessing throughout the book
The writer doesn’t shy away from the uglier aspects
Cons:
Slow to start
Characters lack personality
Overall The Killer In Me is a solid read and what you would expect from a detective mystery.
