Review of 'We Begin at the End' on 'Goodreads'

This book has it all: the most fascinating young female protagonist ever, a mystery with a reveal that I did not see coming, and wonderful writing. In this intricate plot, there is sadness and tragedy, but also joy and redemption. We learn the history of the characters, who have the Dickensian names of Star, Duchess, Walk, King, Noble, and Darke, to name the major ones.

This novel is memorable, and I highly recommend it.

reviewed We Begin at the End by Chris Whitaker

solid violent crime thing, not really my thing

Tough characters, tough children and adults who can't leave their childhood behind, the gritty taste of old western justice and revenge in a decaying modern setting. I can't fault the form for tying in and up every last thread of pain and stretch for redemption.
