All the Dangerous Things
by Stacy Willingham
I found "All the Dangerous Things" to be a disappointing thriller, and it was not nearly as engaging as I had hoped.
The book's premise—a woman searching desperately for her lost son—is intriguing, but the way the story is written is unsatisfactory.
The plot wanders aimlessly and moves at an extremely slow pace, even for a situation with such high stakes.
Isabelle, the primary character, lacks charm, and her concern with locating her son comes across more as a bothersome fixation than as a sincere need to be with her kid again.
This book was predictable and completely unpleasant—a subpar thriller with promising but unsatisfactory execution, in my opinion.
Initial read rating: 2
Overall Rating: 2.5
I liked the premise, but the execution was poor, in my opinion.
