Shadowheart by Meg Gardiner
Narrated by Hillary Huber

The audiobook was good, Hillary Huber's narration was on point.

This was my first book by Meg Gardiner and I was quite intrigued in initial 30-40 % of the book, I was hooked with the writing and overall narration as well but slowly I started losing the interest. There was too much filler information and I wasn't interested in it but something shocking happening.


The scene where Goode is first introduced to us was definitely chilling and he had an impact which lost the charm along the way. Also the chasing scene at metro station was done really good. If that tone had been maintained throughout the book, this was surely be a 4/5 star read for me. Alas, I just lost my interest and finished the book somehow.

One thing is I found names to be a weird a bit, coz I was confused even towards end of the part about characters. Finch sounded like a male character, maybe it is my problem but it bothered me throughout the book.

Thank you Netgalley and Blackstone publishing audiobook for the audiobook ARC in exchange of an honest review.
