The Angel Maker

I was super stoked when I was approved for the audiobook from NetGalley. I am a huge fan of The Shadows and The Whisper Man, so I couldn't wait to get to this one. I love how the audio mixes crime with horror elements. 
Sadly, I'm not much of a fan of this one. I feel like the book lost me within the first 20 minutes of audio. This book features like Goosebumps-level short chapters but from different perspectives. Not to mention also time periods? It jumps so fast and so often that you aren't really spending significant time with anyone, which wasn't allowing me to settle into any one perspective. It was incredibly confusing. 
The hooks and twists of the story were lacking for me, they read as kind of unbelievable. I'm not sure if it was because they were too simple, too coincidental, or because they actually didn't make sense. This read like a book that got published 2 or 3 drafts before it was finished. There's interesting stuff here, but it's not collected well. The Angel Maker? It's like oddly referenced two or three times, sounds super creepy and weird, but literally has no pay out. Did they forget? It kind of sets up its horror elements, but then forgets to add them in. 
Personally a 2/5* for me. Oddly disappointed!
