Wanted to DNF it at least 5 times. That’s saying something.

When Clemmie is found dead, the cops are quick to suspect her rich boyfriend Rupert. Rupert and his friends are Oxford graduates, snobbish and all posh. A major chunk of this book revolves around unpleasant characters who are again rich and snobbish. The three cops assigned to the case are full of banter (probably the only thing I liked about this book) and as they delve deeper into the case, they realise there’s something more to it.

The Other Half at the core has a murder mystery to be solved but the author has thrown in an array of characters to enhance the story. Unfortunately, there wasn’t a single character that I truly connected with especially the main lady called Nell. The plot was unnecessarily dragged and I almost gave up on it about five times before pushing myself to finally finish it. The ending didn’t sit well with me.

Although I’m aware that mine is an unpopular opinion, this book didn’t quite work for me.
