Hmm. This one was good. Good in the sense that I am still thinking about it.
I don’t think that the writing itself was great, or even good. But it was enough to not put me off completely. The concept of a killer that stalks his victims through the real estate ads was good.
But the “chilling” parts were just stupid in my opinion. That the subjects could smell their attacker. It was just over the top, didn’t cause goosebumps, just reminded me that it was a silly paperback.
Also, the reasoning for the way the “baddie” was acting that was kind of just thrown out there in the end… it was quite a good reason. But it wasn’t talked about enough for me to know whether I was meant to feel sorry for him, or if it was just supposed to be known.
It had the potential to be a lot better. The end was badly written, too rushed, and the descriptions were silly, and there was a lot of needless bullshit throughout.
