Brooklyn Legacies

by Triss Stein


Despite the 4.1 star rating of this book on Goodreads, I failed to find the heart. There was nothing "wrong" with it, but I found myself feeling grateful that it was short and quickly over or else I wouldn't have finished it.

What was the matter?  I can't explain. I just didn't care that much about the protagonist and there weren't any secondary characters I really wanted to spend more time with. It was just a straight up-and-down whodunit to me. Even the Whitman plaque fell flat.

I notice that the people who loved it were much more invested in Brooklyn and the history of the area than me. So if that's your thing, you should love it.
