Book Review: The Night Gardener by George Pelecanos

Ambrosia Jefferson
This was a bit of a return to the genre for me and the first book by this Author I have read. I felt a little bit out of my comfort when I first started reading simply because it has been a while since I have firmly looked into this genre. I used to read crime novels all the time.

Overall, I have to say I enjoyed the book. There was a large cast of characters and they were on occasion hard to keep straight, but for the most part, they were well explained. Some of them were likeable and several were not very likeable. That is a sign of a true to life book; you can never like everybody all the time.

Overall, the book is well rounded and well written. I wish I had read it when I first got it and did the giveaway. However, I got to it now and it was a great January book.
