QUICK NOTES: The Bakersville Dozen by Kristina McBride

QUICK NOTES: The Bakersville Dozen was a little bit like stepping into a teenage horror/melodrama TV show halfway through the season. There were some great things revealed but you would have liked to read more about them "in-the-moment", you wanted the first half that felt cut-out. Instead, you're suddenly in the middle of the story and it's a little hard to find the right mindset.

For the purposes of the book a lot of things made sense but at the same time you’re wondering why everyone is making such stupid choices... just like most dramatic teen shows... but still, it was at times just baffling. It was entertaining, for sure, and had its moments but it was also obvious and unsurprising. With a few tweaks here and there and more time and chapters spent leading up to what we had, I think it could have been great.

Ultimately, I just wanted the book to be done.

RATING: ★★★☆☆/ 2.75 stars.

GENRE: Young Adult, Mystery, Thriller
