etienne02 's review for:
You Were Never Really Here
by Jonathan Ames
3,5/5. Action packed novella that won’t slow down for the entire reading. That would be the kind of read I would like to share with my father, he would have love it, if he was a reader. For myself alone, this was an entertaining read. The action is always well described and the plot is captivating without being truly original. There are two things I didn’t like. First, the writing seems nearly adapted for a movie or a tv show, no surprise they did a movie with (going to watch it soon enough...), the writing is graphic, short sentences, very descriptive, not much psychology in there, not a script either but not fully literacy. Second, the ending is way to open, at this point it isn’t an open ending, it just isn’t an ending. The story look unfinished, maybe it would have a sequel, but nothing about that from what I’ve seen so far. And this unfisnished feeling stay with you after closing the book, not that you regret to have read it, but certainly disappointed it didn’t have a proper ending. I like reading it and though it was good (the pace was awesome), but at the same time it have some flaws and could have been better.
