Did Not Finish:
I’m sure this is a wonderful thriller. The premise still intrigues me. Unfortunately, the narrative style does not mesh with my tastes. Thirty pages into the story, all I could focus on was the use of cliffhangers to end every chapter as well as the extremely short chapters used to artificially generate more suspense. The sentence structure was a bit too simplistic and repetitive. For example, the phrase “he watched” was used in three sentences in a row. This is one of those books where I would only be able to pay attention to how much the narrative bothers me, which is neither fair to the author nor fair to my own time and energy. Therefore, I’m calling this one an official DNF.
