pineconek 's review for:

Snowblind by Ragnar Jónasson
1.5
adventurous dark mysterious tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: N/A
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

I felt just a tad bit betrayed. 

I had really high expectations, given that this was my first foray into Icelandic Thrillers. 
The main character is profoundly unlikeable, but not in an anti-hero way. The writing style did not resonate with me.

I remember some plot points that I thought had the potential to become interesting, only to feel like the potential of the moment was deflated. That said, I liked the original concept and wanted to like the book very much. Do the others get better? 

(1.5 stars rounded down.)
