Book Reviews of the The Keepsake: A Novel
Customer Review: This series is tanking fast
Summary: 2 Stars
The first couple of books I was really into. Gerritsen can write characters well and even though you have to suspend belief a lot reading this series (because really, how can so much happen to one set of police officers and M.E.) it's worth it because up until recently, the stories were strong and kept you going. Starting with Mephesto Club though it started downhill and with this one it barrelled down the hill fast, I did a lot of skimming. Parts were extremely long winded and boring and it was like the author was so desperate to come up with a new exotic way of killing that it was just over the top and awful. And you already knew who the bad guy was long before the ending, which was way too cliche.
I really like this author, but if she continues this series, I hope she comes back to basics and what the series started out as, strong characters, human relation, character development and not all this ridiculous plot lines that are just way too far fetched to believe.
