The Hunting Party

Lucy Foley

DID NOT FINISH: 10%

Could just be me. Could be timing. May try again in the future but just not really sinking in and I don't really care 

Think it's a not right now rather than a DNF -may come back to it 
challenging emotional reflective sad fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes
fast-paced

This was ok - check the trigger warnings. It did the job of needing the dopamine hit of finishing a book in under 1.5 hours (my focus has been all over the place and this helped overcome that a bit). 

Characters not that likeable, which was fine, but I really didn't like Edie at the end and her attitude towards Lara - really disappointing reaction. Ruined it for me a bit. 

This was an ok read. Probably worth it but if it had been a full length novel with the same plot and ending, just more fleshed out, I would have been disappointed.

Well that was perfect. 
slow-paced
