GOOD HALF GONE
Tarryn Fisher
First, let me say, I was a big fan before I read GOOD HALF GONE. Second, I STILL AM.
GOOD HALF GONE stars Iris. Iris’s sister was kidnapped right in front of her eyes. Iris has had a lot of trouble getting over her sister’s disappearance. She has built her life around the sequences of that horrible day her sister was kidnapped. And many years later it is still the most horrible thing that ever happened to her.
We meet up with Iris when she goes undercover at a local mental hospital to get information about her sister’s disappearance. We follow as secrets are uncovered and motives are revealed in Tarryn Fisher’s GOOD HALF GONE.
GOOD HALF GONE didn’t work for me. The characters’ quirkiness was distracting and caused a tonal shift that I did not appreciate in a thriller. Each character seemed to be constructed by throwing a dart at a wall. All those elaborate details detracted from the story. It felt almost comedic.
Nothing in the synopsis led me to believe humor would be involved in a kidnapping scenario.
I am a big Tarryn Fisher fan and I have followed her career for years. I want her to win, it’s just not happening this time with this one. I’ll still be here requesting, reserving, buying, reading, and discussing her work.
Thanks to Libro.fm and Harlequin Trade Publishing | Graydon House for the advanced copies!
