A well-written book, but it didn't sweep me off my feet. Full review to come.
Horrible. I got through chapter 10 by dint of sheer will. Bad writing, predictable plotting, and nothing redeeming about it. It gets one star because it is, after all, a book. Save yourself the misery: Avoid.
A Small Death in the Great Glen is one of those novels I wanted to like more than I did. It is easy to see what Ms. Scott was trying to accomplish. She was hoping to create a different type of detective novel, one that addresses some of the social issues of the time while solving a mystery. Unfortun...
This book was ok...again, it was not as good as I thought it should have been or had the potential to be. I would seek out more books by this author though..because it was evident that the potential for me to like the writing was there.
