Review:
“Everyone has a unique voice and a story nobody can tell. And anybody can be a writer”
The Plot is a pretty interesting, inception like story that follows two plots, the plot of the story by Jacob Finch Bonner, and The Plot by Jean Hanff Korelitz. I don’t really “hate” MCs, but gah, best believe I was wholeheartedly cheering for Talented Tom! Evan Parker/Parker Evan was pretty bleh too, so I was happy to see justice served on that end.
You know if there’s a book that involves Athens, I’m there! I was surprised to see it pop up in The Plot. I mean, we went all the way to Rabun Gap, so it nice to see that. The reader of the book did a wonderful job on accents (the slurring in the bar was top notch) and definitely felt like southern accents were probably the most realistic I’ve heard in quite some time.
I feel like there were two big twists in this book. I saw them both coming, but still enjoyed it nonetheless. I called my husband and told him about 40% in that something was off and I was right. This was a book I would have recommended for him, and still am going to make him listen on audio. I felt like the ending was a bit rushed, but it did wrap it up in a nice bow, which is what I was hoping for.
I don’t want to give too much away, but I felt it was a good book with good twists. (Predicable doesn’t always mean boring y’all.) If you’re a fan of The Secret Window or The Talented Mr. Ripley, this one is for you! Thank you @celadon and @macmillanaudio for the gifted copies! The Plot is out May 11th.
