A review by remjunior
Dark Matter by Blake Crouch

4.0

I used to read a lot of John Grisham novels as a teenager. They were fun, fast paced, and were easy to read. That's what this felt like--a good yarn with almost nonstop action, questions, and surprises. It was written well, although nothing stuck out as being incredible writing. In fact, Crouch gets a little preachy in some places and forgets that little rule of "show, don't tell," which had the effect of taking me out of the story.

I'm rambling--this is a fun read and I really enjoyed it for what it is. It's a popcorn book, and that isn't meant to be demeaning.
