The Indian Bride by Karin Fossum
4.0
This was a page turner from the start. And the funny thing is, is that I don't know why!? It actually starts off rather bland. Nothing crazy happens. Nothing exciting at all. But I guess the narration is what got me. It didn't start getting interesting until probably almost 50 pages in, but somehow I was able to breeze by those first 50 pages. I went into this book blind; not knowing anything about it. I assumed that it was going to be a simple love story. But then with one page turn, it instantly turned into a murder mystery. It's an easier read that still requires you to think about the story and stay present while reading. But it doesn't require too much thought, so it allowed me to be able to relax, which is why I read in the first place.
***SORT OF A SPOILER BUT NOT REALLY***
As a personal preference, the only thing that I hated about the story was that the ending was one of those "open concept" endings. You're left to wonder. Not all of our questions get answered. I'm one of those people who want to be told what to the think by the author lol. So if you're not one of those people, you will have no problem with how it ended. Character development and relationships were wrapped up nicely, too.
