Complicated
Hot mess, this one is. I picked this up and enjoyed the first 180 pages. I was flying through it. A twin dies and the other twin is determined to solve the mystery? Yes, please!
But on page 180, we get a twist and then another 180 pages of slow, torturously drawn out exposition that could have been 70 pages easily. And in the end? No believable resolution, tons of plot holes with a lazy one sentence explanation, and no clear motive.
Really, I wasted 5+ hours reading this book and I am annoyed.
