A review by bookitalum
Halfway to the Grave by Jeaniene Frost

2.0

Reading this book is the literary equivalent of eating Taco Bell. Before you order you already know this is probably not a good idea. You throw caution to the wind and go for it, despite your reservations. You take the first bite and think “Ick, this does NOT taste the way I thought it would.” It’s not inedible. You’re here now. You spent good money on it and don’t want to be wasteful, so you eat it. The problem is that it’s just not good. The flavors are underdeveloped. The ingredients are stale. There *is something* indulgent about it, but that doesn’t actually make it good. By the time you finish your meal you feel a little icky. It’s certainly not something you recommend to anyone or even admit you ate. Alas, I’m sure I will order from (metaphorical) Taco Bell again.
