I didn’t quite know what to make of this novel. It’s a true crime style story, that reads as literary fiction, and the mystery just went on too long. There were a lot of issues to deal with - it was just too busy. I couldn’t even prioritise the order of the storylines, it was as though they were all thrown at the book. What I like about a good crime story is usually the ‘tightness’ of the storyline, and this just didn’t do that. The characters would just deal with one thing, and suddenly something else would be thrown into the mix. It really did test my concentration levels!!

I loved Rebecca Makkai’s previous novel, and I’d had high hopes for this. Will I read her next book? Yes, I probably will - I still remember The Great Believers and know that she has written something I’ve really enjoyed. Just not this book.

What can I say? I absolutely loved this and it is one of my favourite reads of 2022 so far. I was hooked from the very first page to the last and completely and utterly devoured it!

With excellent characters, an engrossing story line and a plot with twists that at least one of which I didn't see coming, this is a great read however, be warned, there is a lot of violence and gore from the beginning but, to be honest, that's to be expected given it's about serial killers although it may be a bit much for some.
 
This is a great debut and I will certainly be looking out for more by this author in the future and I have no hesitation recommending to lovers of this genre.

My thanks go to HarperCollins UK, HarperFiction and NetGalley for my copy in return for an honest, unbiased and unedited review.

So only 3 5⭐️s this month but plenty of 4s! My favourite of the month was A Lair of Bones by Helen Scheuerer it was so strange and such a cruel beautiful world I absolutely loved her last series so I have high hopes for this one! Invisible Library was also a very good read had a Victorian steam punk vibe!

My only #fromabox book was Cut and I was a little disappointed to be honest I was expecting more from it!

My worst book was City of Sin by Ivy Smoak again I just wanted more from it!

Overall it’s been a fantastic month for books and I have a good line up for August!!

So this month I’ve read 18 books and DNFd 4!

This month has been a strange mix for me I’ve never DNFd so many books in one month! But I don’t see the point in continuing a book I am not enjoying or is just badly put together when I could be reading one I will enjoy.

My favourite was The Reclamation by Ivy Asher it was a series up until this book that just needed a kick and this book delivered it!
I also really enjoyed When you Disappeared by John Marrs it was a good read!

My worst book was Night Circus I so fell into the hype around this book but it was such a let down I only continued with it for a challenge!

Overall it’s been a okish month for reading I do have some really interesting books coming up for October!
