The It Girl by Ruth Ware
dark
mysterious
tense
slow-paced
I really really struggle with books that make pregnancy an obstacle to the plot in a thriller. Every time she discovers something she then passes out or gets sick and dizzy. It became so ridiculously belabored (pun intended) and it made the story stretch on unreasonably. Editing is a really important skill and I wish I felt like it was happening consistently even with well established authors. Some of the best thrillers have excellent editing. Let’s get back to that skill set please.
