olympiapaige 's review for:

Into the Water by Paula Hawkins

4.0

I think I liked this more than Girl on a Train. Yes, there are lots of characters, and yes it's hard to get into and understand at first because of this, but I felt the ending was worth it. I find domestic-fiction often very trite and unrealistic, this story seemed accurate to all characters, all of whom had separate motivations and acted authentically in their various interactions. I can see why many people won't like this book but the story redeemed itself, by coming to a realistic conclusion.
