The Butcher and the Wren by Alaina Urquhart
3.0
I really wanted to love this story, but I found myself just meh by the end of it.
The book started off strong and chilling. The scene was set for a creepy horror story with a strong protagonist. I dove into the book feet first with the promise of a thrilling ride I couldn't fathom, but was quickly let down by characters I couldn't connect with.
At times I couldn't tell if the story wanted to be true crime, a thriller or a horror story. It was a bit off-putting at times and really detracted from the plot.
I love Alaina Urquhart, but this wasn't my read.
