Review: Bitter Nothings
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 09 21, 2013
I've read all of Vicki Tyley's books and they all have some qualities that keep me coming back starting with well constructed plots with multiple "suspects" to choose from. I've yet to figure out whodunit until just before the climax, often getting completely blindsided. (I then think back to the clues and realize they were all there, if I'd only seen them.) The tension tends to be high, like a thriller, with the protagonist often in danger (or at least feeling they are). The protagonist is always someone I like and find myself pulling for them to solve the mystery. The Australian settings and characters add a little spice, setting them apart and giving me a change of pace from the norm.Bitter Nothings has all of these qualities which leaves me feeling that I don't have anything new to say (other than "buy this book, you'll like it"). So, buy this book, you'll like it.**Originally written for "Books and Pals" book blog. May have received a free review copy. **
