Trespasser

Trespasser.....

This book, The Trespasser by Tana French is the first book I have read from her books.
The things I really like about this book is that she gave me a new female protagonist and that to a Murder Detective, which I know I would really like, whom I have come to fall i love with. She is independent, has personal insecurities and a need to prove her worth to other, in and out a genuine character that I can totally relate to and understand. Secondly this is a part of a detective Novel series which i definitely love. Series is a blessing because even after you complete a book, you know that there are more coming out and you can still see you favorite characters come to light and shine for you. Thirdly I love the way she had described each and every feeling and thought that passes thought the protagonist, it shows how much love and care she has for Antoinette, which many authors don't have. I loved the way she described even the professional and emotional turmoil that Antoinette had during the case and how it connected her to her pwn issues.

Now for the cons in the book, the main drawback i felt while reading the book was that its plot was too simple for me. I could identify the killer by the time i reached half of the book. I felt that the plot needed more thought put into it and more twists and turns. Secondly, the detailing given for the case was not much when compared to the detailing given to the characters. The characters are well woven and is developed when compared to the case on which it was build upon.

Overall I enjoyed the book for its characters rather than the plot. Having said all this, I really liked Tana French's writing style and will love to try another book from the series as the characters have made me fall in love with them.
