What the River Knows by Isabel Ibañez
3.5
adventurous mysterious tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Good storyline, history and landscape and the suspense/mystery was well written and engaging - overall I liked it. 

However, I had a little frustration with Inez as a MC - she started off well and I liked her spunk and determined attitude but after a bit it just morphed into immaturity and being extremely naive and gullible. It was annoying how she refused to consider logic or that maybe things aren’t as they seem. And the back and forth with Whit got a little old.
