snowy_b 's review for:

Running Blind by Lee Child

2.75

---

The twist again! Omg so twisty twisty. Never ever expected it but it made me gasp out loud after reading for 6.5 hours straight. The mystery made me so so tense but in a good way, and the reveal of the method of killing made me feel viscerally uncomfortable. 10/10 serial killer. 

I don't mind Harper, but the whole will they won't they thing was lame. Like either break Jodie and Reacher up or don't. Also the whole "she looks fourteen but she's actually twenty nine" was so weird and gross and setting a pattern for Reacher that I do not like. Also if Lee Child could stop describing her boobs for one singular chapter that would be excellent. 

Ultimately I think Reacher and Jodie aren't lasting another book- they barely lasted this one and all it caused was angst and a singular sex scene. Time for Reacher to get back on the road!!
