As much as I enjoyed parts of Indelible, it was yet another exhausting read. I just felt like I was in a never-ending cycle. Don't get me wrong! I do like the series.
Honestly, I have no idea how Sara married Jeffrey. After all of that mess? Girl, RUN! Bringing Sara to your hometown was such a great idea, Jeff! What a crazy amount of coincidences.
I swear all of the characters dodge answering questions. Not one proper answer!
Karin Slaughter's clever way of writing keeps me drawn in. I may not care for some of the books, but I can appreciate her stories.

Writers & Lovers by Lily King
3.0
Writers & Lovers was well written. I really tried to like this one but some parts just lost me. It was definitely difficult to start the book. I felt the need to finish it though. I was often annoyed by the main character when it came to her attitude towards the love interests. Yes, I know that's not the main point but it bugged me. Is it bad that I preferred Oscar over Silas?
