Time Bomb by Jonathan Kellerman

2.0

It was a drag.

I started reading the book in August. Read a bit for a couple of days and completely forgot about it. Found it in my “Currently Reading” list and decided to complete it.

The narrative could be easily compressed into half of what it is. A lot of what happens over the course of the book feels like filler material. The overly exaggerated depictions of settings did not seem to add much in the way of the plot. But I digress. I think it’s a feature of the author’s writing style.

The ending could’ve come straight out of a QAnon conspiracy theory. The only good thing from this book in the series is that the author heavily cut down on his overly descriptive bedroom scenes.

Apart from that, it doesn’t have a lot riding for it.

I guess if you’re in the mood for a conspiratorial read, this one’s for you.
