Moonlight Mile by Dennis Lehane Final Thoughts

After reading completing my book I have concluded that I did enjoy it. Although in the beginning I found my book to be slow, as it progressed I found myself liking it even more. This book epitomizes the ideal murder mystery because provides an intriguing story line while still remaining enjoyable. Personally, I would relate this book to Frankenstein because in both these stories one man goes to all ends of the Earth to find a missing person. In Moonlight Mile the search is to return a missing girl home in comparison, Frankenstein search is for revenge. Even thought the ideas of searching set them apart, but they theme of located a lost person is the same. In the beginning, I found the exposition to be very slow and to be very boring, however, as the story progressed I found myself to be engrossed in the story and unable to put it down. The next book that I would like to read would be Shutter Island, which also by Dennis Lehane.
