A review by storystruck
In a Dark, Dark Wood by Ruth Ware

dark emotional mysterious sad tense
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

While this has an intriguing set-up, it takes ages for the mystery to actually kick in. I found myself bored, a death (heh) sentence for a murder mystery. I was intrigued enough to finish it - Ware is a skilled character writer - but I can’t give it more than three stars.
