Negative Positive
Title: Great atmospheric novel
Review: I found Garnethill a well-written, engrossing novel. I cared about the main characters, about what happened to them; they were well-developed and likable. Use of dialect in novels is often annoying, but in this instance, it added to the flavor of the story, as did the atmosphere of the Scots setting. It was refreshing, for a change, reading a crime novel written from the perspective of a character who was not a detective or police person. While the novel wasn't flawless, it was a relief for me to enjoy what I feel was good quality writing, after the last disappointing novel I suffered through! I look forward to reading the other two in the trilogy.
