The Fold by Peter Clines

I will not post a summary of this novel as you can find it a lot of places online. Overall I liked this book quite a bit. It was engaging, for the first 270 pages or so, and made me want to keep reading. While the language used wasn't the most advanced, it was easy to read, and therefore even harder to put down. I think this added to the novel. Other than the effect I felt it had on Mike, he's crazy smart but tries to hide it. I would have rather had him speak a little bit more like the smartest person in the world. In the end, the first 270 pages were a solid 4/5, the last pages were probably a 2/5, leading me to give the novel a 3/5 overall. It was almost if the author was rushed to finish the novel, which is a shame for such a wonderful beginning.I received this novel from Blogging for Books for my unbiased opinion.
