Carnages by Maxime Chattam, a book review
I have just read this Novella in an hour, it is fast paced but there are no major surprises. The characterisation is reasonable considering the length of the book, a longer book would have given more time to work the characters, I could see other ways of making this good plot into a better novel, but as a novella it was good. The subject matter covers two very emotive subjects so it may provide good discussion for groups but as a personal read it is just a quick, easy read if you want a break from the novel you are currently reading.
It starts with a massacre at a High School and covers the investigation. Two more massacres follow at two further High Schools and the investigation finally takes a slight twist.
I only rate this 3/5 for personal read and group read as I feel it could have been better.
