Blindsighted

This is a suspense/mystery by Karin Slaughter.

Overall, I'd have to say this is a fairly mediocre book, better than Lisa Unger's works, but not even close to Dan Brown's DaVinci Code. In a list of pros and cons, Blindsighted gains from having strong characters and relationships, but loses ground in the mystery, since it is really impossible for the reader to start guessing at the villian until the protagonist also makes those same guesses.

Personally, I thought this novel should have been written from a first-person perspective. Not only would this strengthen the pros and give an excuse for the cons, but also I think it would make reading the book more comfortable.

So, who should read this? Someone who is bored, doesn't mind a few graphic descriptions of crime, and, for whatever reason, doesn't want to try their luck at picking a random book.
