Suspicion by Alexandra Monir

1.0

I was so disappointed in this book. The plot sounded amazing! A darker version of Princess Diaries? A retelling of one of my FAVORITE books ever, Rebecca? Yes please! The first chapter was good. It set up a lot of mysterious stuff so I was excited to keep reading, but after that it just became awful. ALL of the characters, including the narrator, were so underdeveloped it was ridiculous. The dialogue was too jilted and unrealistic, and everything seemed rushed. This book had so much potential, but the author didn't take time to do anything with it! If someone else picks up this story idea and takes time to make it more original, and not just a rushed, shallow, retelling,please let me know, because I would love to get my hands on it.
