Review: Disturbing the Dead

Disturbing the Dead by Kelley Armstrong
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Thanks to Netgalley and St. Martin's Press for the galley of this novel. Below is my honest review.

If you've followed my reviews for a while, you'll know that I eat up pretty much everything that Kelley Armstrong writes. I really love this series, because it's like a mix between an The Alienist and Outlander with fun mysteries and a dash of a very slow burn romance.

This one ties up a few loose ends that have been dangling, but opens up a bunch of new cans of worms and dumps them everywhere. The mystery isn't as compelling in this one, at least to me, which was odd because I've always loved stuff surrounding ancient Egypt. For me, in this installment, what really drove the story was the character development, both on a personal level and in relationships.

I really love this series, and the new normal means that there should be many more to come. Personally, I can't wait for the next. Thank goodness Armstrong has multiple releases a year to tide me over.

Highly recommended, but I do suggest reading the others in the series first.
