The hardest book I've ever had to read because it's the worst book I've ever read. Serious herculean task to get through this. *pats self on back.
This book was OK. Nothing special. There was some word usage I wasn't familiar with.
Book 3 in the Jessica Coran series
This is the 4th book I have read. They have all been good, but this one dragged. It did not move fast enough.
I would have rated this book more 3 to 3.5 stars if it hadn't been for the ending. At times the book seemed to lag because of all the flashbacks and recounts of things that happened in previous books but the author had a way of decsribing Hawaii that made me wish I was there. And when he got to the meat of the story I was hooked. My biggest critique was that I wished the book was written in a faster pace.
WAY too long... if you want a murder mystery wrapped up in an apparent book about the history of Hawaii, then this is it. If you just want to story without all the history, skip this one.
This book is less about a serial killer and more about “a complete history of Hawaii.” Much of the color text could (and should) have gone out the window and shaved about 100 pages off. The wheels completely came off about three quarters of the way through. Coran’s and Parry’s characterizations completely failed in my opinion. Jessica argued like a hamfisted dude.
At least the series is consistent (3* from me). The potential is there for a good story but for me there was just too much description of the areas.
