Best Day Ever by Kaira Rouda
My rating: 2 of 5 stars
This is an odd one: the blurb makes it sound like it’ll be a dark, complex and dynamic story but, unfortunately, the sole first-person narrator is so full of his own cleverness and ‘amazing-ness’, that it becomes very monotonous very quickly.
It’s also really clear which way the story is going to go; I’m not sure which of the twists I wasn’t supposed to see coming but I wasn’t particularly surprised by any of the plot points. It did make me read on to see where it was going but unfortunately the ending was also a bit underwhelming and the story just seemed to fade away.
With thanks to NetGalley and HQ for the opportunity to read the ARC of Best Day Ever.
