A Novel

Sleep Tight

Lauren Lipford

The switching of POVs - I enjoyed this aspect where it switched from the POV of Tess’s dad’s notes to her POV/other POVs as Tess tries to figure out how to get her daughter back and what happened to her the night of Pritchard’s arrest, but I feel like sometimes the notes were in odd places and didn’t really help my knowledge or further my understanding of what was going on in the story.

The plot - Underwhelming/Was hoping for spooky or horror vibes and did not meet expectations; this might be partially my fault since I’ve read, watched, and listened to too many stories and documentaries about serial killers that included a horrific amount of detail 😅

Overall, the book was enjoyable, but I was left with a lot of questions at the end of the book. 

Here are my thoughts: 

The pacing of the book/each chapter - there seems to be an attempt to have a fast pace, but ultimately it leaves out important details when those details are needed and adds more detail where more information is not needed.
