Dark Roads by Chevy Stevens
Did not finish book.
3.0
Unfortunately I think this was a case of “wrong book for me” because I didn’t love it, but seem to be in the minority.
The begging was immediately captivating and I quickly connected with Hailey and felt so much outrage and did guest and genuine fear for her. And the ending was a dramatic action packed ride with fantastic twists. However the middle was so slow paced and meandering. So much detail, which was great but I felt like I read almost 200 pages where very little happened (or few interesting things). For me this was about 100 pages too long so that by the time I got to the action I was already too bored by the slow parts.
If you like slow burn thrillers where you feel like you are in the footsteps of the characters. And don’t mind reading about mundane events, then it’ll be worth it to read this book for the ending.
