A review by tallulah13
Then She Was Gone by Lisa Jewell

dark emotional mysterious fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

I like Lisa Jewell’s novels quite a lot! They’re never quite 5 star reads for me, but always a go to when I want a pretty solid and definitely entertaining mystery/thriller. 

The twists were guess-able but it was an entertaining ride nonetheless!
Two baddies in different ways was a fun take also.


My biggest criticism was how some of the characters were written re: their ages,
specifically SJ and Poppy. I kept forgetting SJ was 21 and even for a super gifted kid Poppy was just off.
