Twisted Helix - Unraveling the BioGenix Conspiracy

Michael Beuthel

DID NOT FINISH: 12%

Too repetitive; each chapter just describes sneaking into Biogenix and hacking their servers over and over to collect data and the details of the genetic experiments the team is trying to uncover just get glossed over.

Maggie's Missing - A Cornwall Island Mystery

Simone Avory

DID NOT FINISH: 61%

I felt like the prologue already kind of spoiled the ending - we know from the title that Maggie is missing and the prologue introduces us to a serial killer targeting young women. Not much mystery putting two and two together. I decided to still give it a shot because it could of course be a red herring but the book was terribly written; repetitive and redundant use of phrases and descriptions (we get to know about a higher-ranking police officer and are reminded of him being higher ranked 9 times over 2 pages for example, or the lively atmosphere of a restaurant is mentioned in every single paragraph while the protagonist is at the location. This book could probably be turned into a short story if one deleted all the repetitions and I gave up half way through because my brain just got so bored of reading the same thing over and over I just zoned out completely. Almost feels like a text written by AI.

Female protagonist clearly written by a male author; while being in a scary & dangerous situation she’s worried about her baby weight and talks about her leaking engorged tits. No thank you.
