The Writing Class by Jincy Willett

4.0

It took me getting through the first 10% of the book to really feel invested in the story, but once I was in I was hooked. The storytelling around the two main plots, one of Amy Gallup and her writing class learning together about one and other and writing, and the other about the maniac-turned-murderer in their midst, was just so fun and engaging. I really enjoyed this book, and was happily surprised to be much more spooked (and later surprised by the murderer’s identity) than I expected to be as the suspense increased. I only wish there was more closure on the “how” of some of the weird behaviors of the different characters that are mentioned throughout as Amy attempts to scrutinize them. But true to the character of Amy, Willett isn’t concerned with the “how,” so much as the “what” and “why.”
