A review by tylajade_
Wild Place by Christian White

3.0

I have to admit I was a little disappointed in this book, I’m not saying I didn’t enjoy it I just feel it lacked that Christian White spark I was looking so forward to that I’ve gotten from his other novels (The Nowhere Child & The Wife and The Widow). I couldn’t help but feel it was a touch predictable and the outcome very cliché. I think the overall story was interesting and had a lot of potential hence why I think I feel so let down, I just wish it had been a little more thrilling and maybe just a little more suspenseful. I feel like there was a lot of unnecessary dialogue that if I had skipped it I would have gotten the same outcome. I’m not sure if Christian did this purposely to make the reader feel toms frustration during that moment but I found myself constantly trying to skim through the paragraph as quickly as possible. I feel as if he could have done so much with the whole “satanic cult” story line but failed to do so.

Overall I still love Christian White as an author I just think it was hard to follow up from his past two novels as I thoroughly loved every single moment of them.
