Firstly I need to say I think I did this book a disservice coming straight to it from having finished Keep It In The Family, which is an incredible book, and this just didn’t quite meet the standard, in terms of storyline, that set. 

I am really enjoying John’s writing style and finding it easy to read and engage with. 
I struggled with how much this book flitted between current and past, I am not someone who massively enjoys prequels or flashbacks so I did find by the end I was rushing to get to the reveals and what really happened and couldn’t help but feel I would of liked it to move at a little faster pace. 

I didn’t mind the storyline, and I didn’t see the big reveal at the end coming, but by the time I got there I found I was just trying to get through it and skim reading a lot. 

For me this is the perfect example of how you can enjoy an authors writing but not love all their books, and that’s ok! This wasn’t a bad book, it was more bad timing on my part as it just isn’t Keep It In The Family.
