Review: Little Bones

Little Bones
Little Bones by Sam Blake
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

I thought this story was fine, I liked the plot and the writing in general was good.
I was worn down by the narrative voice , though. We’re inside the character’s head and hear each. and. every. mundane. thought. From everybody. It’s omniscient molasses that just bogs the thing down for me.
Blake had an ending worthy of Ken Bruen, but, then, I think I have the same complaint about Bruen (good, if not great ending, on that last page), but the journey to get there is riddled with large swaths of boredom at yet more ruminating.
