Review: Idaho

Idaho by Emily Ruskovich
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I liked this book well enough - it was an engaging read and the plot had a mystery-like theme to it, which I liked. A woman finds clues that lead her to question violent acts in her husband's first marriage. However, I wasn't drawn enough to the characters; in their own ways, they were each unlikeable, and it was hard to connect to a book when I couldn't identify a hero-protagolist. I also found the author's way of suggesting events rather than being explicit about them frustrating. Overall, not as good as many other books I've read lately.
