Black River Falls
by Jeff Hirsch
Typically I'm not into the whole slight dystopia, virus spreading kinds of book and this one isn't an exception. There were good ideas here, and the tone and style is very competent. It just wasn't the genre I'm usually interested in. Again I found myself liking the side characters more than the protagonist, who was very underwhelming.
It also took more than 2/3rds of the book for the plot to really get moving and that really is too long to wait. The majority of the book has such meandering pace that it's difficult to stay interested. Most of the twists I saw coming from a mile away.
This isn't a terrible book, but it's one that I will probably forget about in a month or so.
