Mini Review: Locust Lane by Stephen Amidon
3***
This was a quick paced and entertaining read. Though as I write this review, two weeks have passed since I finished reading it, and the details are already growing hazy, which says something about how memorable it will be for me. That being said, I liked the setting, which felt atmospheric and well well crafted. The plot was, to me (a crime fiction/mystery/thriller addict), fairly predictable, though that did not make the book boring. My main issue was that most of the characters just felt a bit flat to me, not well developed, which is a pet peeve for a character-driven reader. All in all, an entertaining read, and I would be interested in trying something else by the author in the future.
Thanks to Celadon Books and Netgalley for supplying a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
