Such an interesting premise!! The killer is on the jury…
So many twists and turns in this book. All were enjoyable, even if some were unbelievable. I didn’t mind buying in because over all it was just a super fun read.
There was a lot of detailed descriptions of violence which made me squirm a bit. There were also a number of typos I noticed and the writing style is train of thought style, with short, incomplete sentences. They fit the fast pace but once in a while they seemed a little egregious.
Overall, this did remind me of an episode of Criminal Minds (one of my favorite shows) and I would definitely read more of this series!
