Emma in the Night by Wendy Walker
3.0
I felt the book had potential but left me high and dry. As other reviewers have mentioned, there is no opportunity to connect with any of the characters. I don't get to know them and as a result, I felt ultimately disconnected from the story.
The story itself was oddly paced and I had some trouble with pushing through many of the parts. I found myself just wanting to get it over with and move on to the next snippet. Parts of it were interesting but those parts felt almost like a different story.
Part of me wonders if this wasn't done purposefully by the author to convey the dueling personalities of narcissistic personality disorder. If so, it was a noble attempt but fell flat.
Overall, the book was decent. I wouldn't recommend it though and probably won't read the author's other novel.
