The Breakdown

This book is a slow, slow burn and then the answers felt like they came at me all at once. This is a fine read with some tense moments that thew me off balance with the main character, but I felt like the most relevant motives happened outside the book. When everything comes to a head, the book just ends too quickly as we're told all the character motivations and background instead of seeing everything play out like in Paris' "Behind Closed Doors". In a full B.A. Paris ranking, I'd put this book in the middle or bottom of the stack.
