Late Bloomer by Mazey Eddings

Go to review page

Did not finish book. Stopped at 20%.
Hahn I love Mazey Eddings usually and was so looking forward to this, but I found the beginning 15% SO frustrating. I understand Opal is a pushover but it just got annoying to read. I then felt like although I imagine her scenario of buying a farm from a FB listing isn’t the most ridiculous thing someone has done, I had to suspend belief a bit - added to the previous pushover issues I just couldn’t enjoy it.
I continued to see how I felt with the RI but it felt awkward and a bit tell me instead of show me. Ultimately I couldn’t carry on reading and I’m gutted!

I mostly liked the narration but at times was a bit over-acted 😂

The story was entertaining and well-paced but nothing special. The romance was interesting - with the serial killer element - but quite superficial

It’s me, not the book. I am too emotional for this storyline atm
