Book Review: Plugged


Review:  #345
Title:  Plugged
Series:  Daniel McEvoy (not official name) - 1st book
Author:  Eoin Colfer
Read Before:  no
My Comments:  Where there were many things that I didn’t quite like or enjoy about this book, I just kept reading onwards.  I felt that there were too many flashback scenes, and it was confusing at first, but it did give us a better look into the background of the main character.  There are some very weird characters present and a lot of swearing and crude mentions.  While this is described as a crime thriller, I didn’t feel much tension or suspense.  The situation changes drastically as the book go on too, and it feels as if there were a couple of distinct subplots going on around at different parts of the book.  Near the end, you’d thought that the whole thing was over, and then suddenly, the second major plot comes into play and you get another situation brewing.  It’s an interesting book but it doesn’t stand out too much.
Rating:  6/10
