alixjack 's review for:

An Unwanted Guest by Shari Lapena
3.5
dark mysterious tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Enjoyable enough and a quick read, but a little cheesy and missing  clues that would help the reader try to figure it out, thereby lacking the “ah-ha!” factor that I enjoy in a whodunnit. I wouldn’t move this to the top of a to-read list but I wouldn’t remove it either - keep it on there for when you’re looking for something quick and mysterious without too much anxiety.
