A review by wormz
Midnight in Europe by Alan Furst
2.0
dnf at ~2/3 of the way through but counting it anyway
maybe this was a bad book to start with as an intro to alan furst but i just found this to be so boring. the characters had no personality and the plot just seemed kind of random. like another reviewer said, there were no stakes at all for anyone. a guy gets arrested by the SS, but there’s no hurry to rescue him bc he ends up being fine. no tension or intrigue whatsoever.
