The Likeness by Tana French

Vismay’s first review of the year

liked it
Great premise, well written (sometimes over-written) but a silly protagonist who is never in charge - she even admits to being stupid by the end of this book.

The attempt to put the same cliff-hanger about the world ending (on reversal of magnetic poles) in the last paragraph of every chapter - kills any impact that it tried creating in the first place.

Still this book is a good refresher course t
