I'll be honest, I was a little scared going into this because I adored All the Missing Girls and I was afraid that I only really liked it because of the backwards plot, but it doesn't seem like a one hit wonder to me. Miranda's writing is very captivating and I couldn't put this down after about halfway.

I know this probably isn't the Sanderson book I should have started first since it's YA and not his usual fantasy, but from what I've read about his books, this is pretty much what I expected. Great world building, a lot of suspense and action, and okay characters.

Rock, Scissors, Paper: The Clifford Olsen Murders

Rock, Scissors, Paper: The Clifford Olsen Murders
 
Richard Stevenson
 
 

*This book was gifted to me by the author. The below review is my honest opinion*
 
I'm not a fan of things written in verse, so it was probably a bad idea to agree to read this before realizing that.

I'm not sure if I just wasn't as in to this because of the writing or the plot, but it was just okay for me.

I liked the last book, but I loved this. The only reason why it's not number one in my heart right now is just because the ending was a lot like Empire of Storms.

Well, this one went downhill pretty fast.
 
I feel bad because the atmosphere of about 60% of the book was very spooky and I was feeling it... but I had a lot of problems with the plot and characters.

I know a lot of people are obsessed with Schwab, but between this and ADSoM, I haven't been too impressed. There were definitely things I liked about this book, but in the end it didn't really have a hold on me.

It must be a running theme for me lately to adore half of books. Seriously, the second half of this book was amazing, it was just the beginning that felt a bit boring to me.
