This was a good read, although I can't say I much cared for any of the characters.
It was well written, so there was that.
More Twisted Than The London River It Takes Place On. This is one of those hyper-twisted books where for much of the tale, you think you're getting one thing... only for it to flip, then flip again, then again and again and again. Told mostly in two eras, the days immediately after a particular person goes missing and the year prior to that event, this is a tale of intrigue and, let's be quite honest, quite deplorable characters. Seriously, if you are the type that has to “like” the characters or at least one of them... well, there really isn't much of that to go around here. These characters are all horrible in some way or another, though hey, perhaps that is life. Overall a compelling story with an ending you won't believe. Very much recommended.
Dit was helemaal niet het verhaal dat ik had verwacht. Ik had me een hele mysterieuze verhaallijn voorgesteld over een ongrijpbare passagier, maar wat ik kreeg was een flauw verhaal over een domme man van middelbare leeftijd die domme clichématige mannen-van-middelbare-leeftijd-dingen doet en dan verrast is dat het terugkomt om hem te bijten.
Hoewel ik sommige plotwendingen wel goed vond, en dan vooral de epiloog, was dit een heel middelmatig tot zwak boek.
