The Split

This was a really fantastic read! The twists and turns kept coming and the author does a brilliant job of keeping you guessing!

I admit to it getting confusing at times, but that honestly didn't take away from the whole reading experience. It only added to it.

It was brilliantly written especially the scenic description of South Georgia. It really allowed you to picture the scenes.

At one point, when reading about Felicity's background (the lead up to her arriving in South Georgia) makes you think you're reading two completely different books but the author does an amazing job bringing the whole story together.

I totally would have read it in one go if I'd had the full book in front of me (another book read on Pigeonhole!).

I would definitely highly recommend this book! Up there with one of my favourite reads of 2020!

I enjoyed this book, but I was also disappointed. I figured “it” out very early on (10-15% in) so the big reveals actually didn't come as a surprise at all.

The Sharon Bolton novels I've read before are crime novels with clever mystery twists to figure out. And I think I made the mistake of expecting something similar when opening this book. The Split is not a crime novel. It's a psychological thriller. And if you've read Bolton before you know she delivers on that account.

So 3.5* for an enjoyable (albeit not very cleverly foreshadowed) read.
