Opinion:
Birdwatcher is a amazing, murder mystery book. There were many things I liked about this book. The first is the pace. The pace was excellent, not too fast, but not too slow, perfect for keeping a reader’s attention. The next thing I liked was the plot. The plot was very exciting. The reason that the plot was exciting was because of the many plot twists. The pace and the plot worked together beautifully, and together they made this book a page-turner. There was even a lesson to be had from this book: don’t go out alone as a child unless you have permission.
This book was so good that I genuinely struggled to find something bad to say about it!
In short, Birdwatcher is a great, murder mystery story. I give this book 5/5 stars. However, I would only recommend this to 13+ readers because I felt it was a bit dark. Go give this book a read!
