Title: Very Convoluted - Very Disappointing
Review: After reading every book in every series LKH has written, I was looking forward to this. After reading happily along for the first 15 pages, the book then slid into a disappointing miasma of side plot lines and (never thought I'd say this), way too much strange sex. I don't think the "mystery" aspect of solving the serial killings even picked up until perhaps 3-400 pages later. I actually started skimming over the sex scenes, as they became rather rote and boring, to see if the story would pick up again. It did at the end of the book, but about 200 pages of superflous couplings could have been edited out. Am hoping LKH reads some of her fan's reviews, and fixes this in the next book.
Is the review positive or negative?
