Annie LeBlanc Is Not Dead Yet by Molly Morris
Did not finish book. Stopped at 22%.
Dnfing at 22% - I tried. I was excited about the premise. The idea of a town having a lottery to bring someone back from dead for a month and their friend trying figure out a loophole to have them stay was a pretty cool one. Good idea, poor execution. I found the town interesting and the lady that was in charge of lottery, but all the side characters and storylines were a jumbled mess. Bummer. Also, not a fan of the narrator - only certain characters had voices and others had the same voice. So, sometimes there was a true conversation and other times a monotone one - not pleasant to listen to. Maybe this would be less confusing and more enjoyable to read with my eyes, but I’m not apt try anytime soon.
Additionally, I wasn’t a fan of the tasteless celebrity death jokes. Yes, this a book about coming back from the dead, but to throw in random death jokes was odd and made me uncomfy.
