selfiegrandpa 's review for:

My Sister, the Serial Killer by Oyinkan Braithwaite
2.5
dark emotional sad tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This was an easy, quick read. I wasn’t necessarily drawn to the characters or the plot, but I think the fact that I read it so fast just kept my momentum going. 

This felt like a book I should have loved but I really think the writing played a part in it not clicking for me. It felt a bit too shallow; as the story played out I felt a sense of “…. Okay 😕”. unfortunately forgettable even though I was hoping it’d redeem itself.
