I Have Some Questions for You

The only good thing I can say about this book is that I love Julia Whelan as a audiobook narrator. I went into this with such high hopes and I was bored. So, so bored. This book is all over the place. Tons of characters between the past and present. An unlikable, whiny MC in Bodie. Too many social issues trying to be tackled here; me too, racism, the criminal justice system, corrupt police, child grooming, classism, cancel culture...just to name a few. It would have benefited from scaling back. Also there are portions between chapters where the MC is describing random cases of violence against women which did nothing but detract from the overall story. The ending pissed me off and left me wondering what the point of it all was.

Ugh. It’s my book of the month and I’m freaking hating it. I wish I had the audio. Lol. I love Julia Whelan.
I hate this book. I was bored from start to finish.
You sum up my thoughts perfectly. I can’t remember the last time I’ve been more disappointed with an ending. This is a book that tries to do too much and yet does nothing well.
Can somebody explain the ending? Lol I totally didn’t get it and hates this book
I couldn’t finish it but agree w most of the review!
This was such a tedious read. Too many characters. Too many unnecessary details. By the end, I barely cared who the real murderer was.
💯!! Why did I waste my time?! That’s it?
Bingo! What in the world was the point?!?
I think I missed a part in the book… who actually killed Thalia?
Totally agree on the weird little chapters of just randomly listing cases of violence against women. It just felt kind of disingenuous. The whole book felt like it was trying so hard to be “twisty,” but I never felt any real moments of tension or any true stakes to the story itself. Especially with such a disappointing ending.
