Crime Brulee

Treatment of mental illness was terrible.

I wanted to like this book. I enjoyed it but at the halfway point it started dragging on…ultimately too formulaic.

Long and slow. Characters didn’t seem realistic.

Character reads as much older than she is supposed to be.

Last two chapters I read as a farce. Imagined that the author meant to write such a horrible main character who thinks it’s okay to tell the police how to do their business, be rude and racist etc. to everyone. If you read it as a total farce it’s tolerable.
