Tall Bones by Anna Bailey

3.75

Whilst reading Tall Bones I found it really difficult to figure out if I liked it or not. The characters and setting are well developed and intriguing and the plot points are interesting enough. The book is written like a literary thriller, which sometimes works for its themes but at points can feel overworked and overdone. I found this to be very much a slow burn book for me, only after about 30% did I feel invested in it, and that waned again throughout the book. 

Overall though this book was hard hitting and uncomfortable in the right places, and the characters of Noah and Rat were particularly engaging. This was not an easy going thriller, but well worth the read.
