Right. I'm currently 3 books into Jonasson's Dark Iceland series and really enjoying it, so I was excited about this series (and really interested in the idea of a story told in reverse). I've come away from it hugely disappointed. The plot felt contrived and rushed and the revelations didn't make any sense at all. There was no depth to any of the characters and the dialogue felt forced throughout. The multiple points of view didn't work for me either. They were clearly written to create a reveal at some point in the book, but those reveals were predictable and didn't have much bearing on the story. I also found the writing really repetitive, with Hulda going over events that we had witnessed multiple times. The book, incredibly, could have been shorter (and probably better) if the instances of going over things we already knew had been cut in half. It's not a long book, I didn't need to be constantly reminded of something that happened 30 pages ago.I don't think the narrator did the book any favours, as she didn't seem to let the book breathe as she read it, often sprinting through sentences in the name of dramatic tension. Overall, this was a real miss for me, and I don't have any interest in continuing the series.
