Not for me

2 stars

I was not intending to read this, but did since it was nominated for the Hugo Best Novel. I read Mexican Gothic, Silvia Moreno-Garcia's earlier novel and thought it was just ok, but had been told by a co-worker this was a stronger book. Unfortunately, I didn't come away with that same opinion. There was no suspense, no big twist or revelation, and the final quarter of the book seemed to drone on forever. I know there is a lot of love out there for this book, but none from me.
