“So slow, bad to read it. There are lots of words, and not in a good way. It starts slow, it ends fast. It was meh for me.”
“My favorite kind of book is the kind that makes me discover a new author.
The Buried Girl by Richard Montanari really took me by surprise. I partly read and partly listened to the audiobook, and I had such a blast with it. When I was reading, I forgot to check how many percent I had finished (the good and bad thing about ebooks, right?). And when I was listening while working, the job went so much better – because I got totally caught up in the story and just breezed through my day.
This is exactly the kind of crime novel I love. I'm a big fan of cold cases, and trust me, these ones go *way* back. And they don’t stop either. It feels like Will and his daughter Detta, who’ve left New York hoping for a better future, have gone from a bad situation to something even worse. The loss of Will’s wife and Detta’s mother still hangs over them. A new beginning sounds like a good idea. And Abbeville seems like such a lovely place...
Meanwhile, Ivy – third-generation Ivy starts connecting a new murder to very old ones. Girls have been going missing for a long time, and she’s beginning to see a disturbing pattern.
I loved Will, Detta, and Ivy so much. I really hope this isn’t a standalone! And honestly, with the way it ended, I think there *could* be at least one more book set in Abbeville.
The Buried Girl was so good that I jumped straight into another one by the author, The Echo Man. Now I want to read everything he’s written!”
“The first half of this thriller was intentionally confusing, a hallmark of a good suspense novel. The plot moved at a fast and engaging pace, all while keeping me delightfully disoriented. As the story progressed, the questions piled up, making it impossible to put the book down.
In the second half, some pieces started to fall into place, but I found myself constantly searching for explanations for the unexpected twists and turns. The characters were well-developed and compelling, and the plot was a rollercoaster ride of suspense, keeping me on the edge of my seat until the very last chapter.
Almost all of the loose ends were tied up satisfyingly, though I was left with a couple of lingering questions.
Overall, I highly recommend this book to any fan of the thriller genre.”Start a Book Club
