I think I've officially determined I'm not a mystery/thriller person — they just don't do it for me. This was objectively a good time, with a really fun, interesting story and fantastic characters, but I simply didn't care for the first half of it. The end definitely made up for it, but not enough to discount the fact that I seriously considered giving up halfway in simply for the fact that it wasn't for me. I'm glad I've made up my mind, though, because it means I can stop trying to force it with mysteries — the rest of you can have at it though.
