The Book of Accidents by Chuck Wendig
3.0

3.5
After finishing this book I felt...nothing. It kept me entertained but I just didn't feel attached to any of the characters or fully gripped by the plot. I don't have any true complaints about this book but I feel that if I decided to put it down without finishing I wouldn't have been wondering about how the story ends. While this book did have horror and gore elements, it was more in line with fantasy as far as genre is concerned. The characters were dynamic and I enjoyed the alternating pov throughout the book. While the plot was okay, I there were too many elements and it made the story become muddy at points. Questions are left unanswered and parts of the story could have been pieced together more neatly. It was an interesting read but I am very neutral about the whole experience of this book. Very much the definition of "just okay" for me.
