Book 50: My Favorite Terrible Thing by Madelein Henry

 I just finished My Favorite Terrible Thing and I give it ☆☆☆ 1/3. 

I enjoyed the first two thirds of the book--the story of a private detective finding a missing person--an author who had written a best selling and highly compelling novel who disappeared the day of her wedding. There were lots of references to Donna Tartt and I thought this book would be like that. I enjoyed following how Nina investigated the mystery. The last third of the book contains a huge twist which was creepy and unbelievable. The explanation for the twist was not believable either. So that pretty much killed it for me--4 stars for the first 2/3, two stars for the last 1/3.
