Lake Crescent: A Creature X Mystery by J. J. Dupuis

2.0

I want to thank NetGalley and Dundurn Books for the Advanced Release Copy in exchange for my honest review!

I really wanted to love this book! The premise sounded so interesting! Parts of the book really dragged; it felt stiff, dry, and at times lacked urgency even when there was action on the page. I want my thrillers to pull me in and not let go.

There were a lot of characters and suspects, and I had a difficult time keeping track. None of them were particularly memorable so that didn't help either.

If you are looking for "lite" mystery then you might enjoy this but for me, it didn't live up to the hype.
