A Killer Lives Here

This was one of the most convoluted books I have ever read. Too many ideas and characters that came out of nowhere.

[Paige Alexander Alexander]

Strap in, because this book is definitely a ride! From the very beginning, you're thrown into an intense situation that quickly takes a dramatic turn. The writing keeps the tension high, and you're never quite sure who has what agenda.

The "bad guy" isn't immediately obvious, and there is suspicion surrounding almost everyone, which kept me guessing throughout. The story is intense, unpredictable, and very well written.

I did have to read the ending twice to fully understand everything and piece together the motives, but I actually think that added to the experience rather than taking away from it.

There were minimal editing issues, and I really liked the author's writing style. This was something a little different from what I usually read, and it certainly kept me invested.

Overall, I would definitely recommend this book. If this is anything to go by, I'll be looking at more books from this author and would happily continue with their work.

Well, this book did have twists and turns for sure but I did not like the writing style so I gave it 4 stars.
