A review by jillie
A Study in Drowning by Ava Reid
dark
mysterious
3.5
Pros:
- beautiful writing (some of the best i’ve read all year)
- gloomy, well-crafted atmosphere
- sweet love story
Cons
- too short for all of the world building it had - things felt muddled or should have been more in depth
- the “twist” (?) wasn’t really a twist & was fairly predictable
I enjoyed Reid’s writing but wish I had known what this book was actually about before reading it.
