A review by peneloperea
The Tourist by Olen Steinhauer

3.0

I love a good spy story and was honestly excited to start The Tourist. Sadly it’s taken me 20 plus days to finish it. I just could not stay engaged.

I found Miles Weaver, CIA, interesting to follow but the twist became so intertwined that I almost needed a nitro to keep track of what was going on. I’m not a fan of working that hard to read a book. I want to be enveloped in the world, I don’t want to put the book aside for a week just to figure out if I’m enjoying it or frustrated by it. I found myself pushing this one aside more than wanting to finish it.

I’m sure many will enjoy The Tourist and any future novels but I’m not one of them.

Thank you St. Matrin’s Press & NetGalley for providing this book in exchange for my honest review.
