I wasn’t expecting that!

Twins delivered while the Mother lies there in a coma after being shot.

This was a gripping read and to me, something different that held my attention throughout!

So who was it?
What happened.

I loved the dual timelines.

***ARC Given for honest review***

I was hooked on this when I first started reading, but then it became slow and the story no longer gripped me.

Sorry!

Skewed had to grow on me. In the beginning I was intrigued, but although I never really got into the story for a while, it kept nagging me at the back of my mind wondering how it was going to end.

Janie has been famous and followed all her life, but not for the right reasons. Her mother was the supposedly last victim of the famous Haiku Killer and killed while Janie was <i> in utero </i> . When Janie starts receiving photographs of the old case and the murderer, her father, is about to be released things will get complicated quickly, especially since he has always claimed to be innocent.

This one really had me guessing until the end, and it has been a while since that happened. In hindsight one can see the hints that are being dropped, but that I didn't take on at first. The main character had a witty sort of sarcasm that I kind of liked. What I was not a big fan of was the second story from Janie's mother's POV which leads up to the murder but didn't add a lot to the story. But, all in all, a nice read that did take some time to get into but it does pay off in the end.

Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for providing me with a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

Skewed is the story of a pair of twins who survived their mother's shooting whilst in utero. Their father was convicted of the murder but always professed his innocence. Janie (one of the twins), crime scene photographer, is sent two photos that make her doubt her father's conviction.

Went to start reading this, but after re-reading the synopsis, found that I was no longer interested. However, I am still giving this a 3 star rating because I believe that it's unfair to give a higher or lower rating since I didn't actually read the book.
