The Chateau by Catherine Cooper
2.0
The Chateau, or The Case Of The One Too Many Plot Twists. I love outrageous thrillers, I do. What I don't like is when there are plot twists just for the sake of having them, and they make the story outlandish and somewhat over the top. Insufferable Aura and annoying Nick are not having a good time in their new French chateau, and weird thins start happening almost as soon as they move in. On top of this they have "this thing that happened in London" hanging over them. Literally, for about 35% of the book it's mentioned almost on every page to the point where I felt like I don't even care what happened in London, it's just so annoying.
All in all this was an ok story, and I quite liked the neighbours, even though they were a bit weird in the beginning. But all these coincidental and sinister events were just too much.
