Review - Before We Ever Spoke

One of the worst books I've ever read. I have no idea why I bothered finishing it. The plot was pointless. The story line about the cop only started two-thirds of the way through the book and had nothing whatsoever to do with Cooper and Cara (except that the cop happened to be Cara's brother). Also, the book left a huge doubt that the killer really killed all the girls and so that plot was never resolved. The backstories and pointless details are given for every character, no matter how minor or how short a time they appear. And the writing was terrible. Words were misused. Sentences contained extra words—or not enough words. It was clunky and ridiculous. My major joy in reading was to find sentences—there was at least one on each page—that were so bad that I reread them to see if they were really as bad as they first appeared.
