If I Should Die

If I Should Die by Jennie Hanson 2.5 out of 5 stars

A lot of how I felt about this book can be explained by a single experience.  As I was going through the list of books I've read, I saw this one and thought, "If I Should Die, If I Should Die, what book was that?"

I couldn't remember what it was until I did a search for it!

Kallene's friend and running partner Linda disappears the day after Linda confided to Kallene that she wantd to divorce her husband.  The story follows the case of Linda's disappearance and Kallene's dual romance with as policeman investigating Linda's disappearance and Linda's own brother.

I had limited the main villain to two characters fairly quickly (both with the same motive) and it was one of those suspects who was indeed the villain (really the only difference between my two suspects was whether or not which one was deranged enough haha).  The romance honestly left me a bit unsatisfied, just because it seemed like some of the details of the developing relationships were left out.  Since there was a dual romance, only one man could win out in the end, but it was never made clear why Kallene cared for him more in the end.  Maybe I saw chemistry when there wasn't any?

It's a very clean novel, which was a major plus!  (LDS fiction)

In the end though, I thought it was rather average.  Not fully satisfying, but not a complete waste of time.
