OK, I don’t like to talk about someone’s memoirs as being flawed, but I received an advance copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

I did not like this book at all. It’s a short story, and yet I really struggled to get through it. I like crime stories and enjoy this genre yet I couldn’t get into this book or the characters. The flow and the set up were all wrong. It flip-flopped between present and past, which is fine and I think everyone is used to that style by by now in books, but sometimes it was unclear which timeframe the author was speaking about. She would date chapter headers as past present etc., and then proceed to change into another timeframe. It just didn’t fit and seemed like she was saying “Oh, I have something to tell you, let me just stick this here.” It was like listening to somebody’s train of thought that just came out of their head and out on to paper, instead of a book that should’ve been logically thought out. Things were very missed miss-matched and haphazard. This made it hard to follow what was going on sometimes and get into the characters. The characters were real life people who you were supposed to have some sort of a emotion for but ultimately I just didn’t, and I feel bad about that, but I think this needs a lot of work because it could be good!… (lisätietoja)
