Rezension von Eileen Dierner Ich mochte dieses Buch von Anfang es. Da dachte ich noch, es wäre eine gewöhnliche Romanze, wie man es mit diesem Cover eben erwartet. Der Schreibstil ist locker und die Protagonistin gewitzt und sympathisch. Ich habe so gierig gelesen, dass ich nicht merkte, wie ich die Seiten umblätterte.<br/>Und dann kam der erste Plottwist. Er hat mich ungehauen und der Geschichte eine ganz andere Note verliehen. Natürlich liegt das auch daran, dass ich den Klappentext ignoriert habe, denn rückblickend verrät er die erste Hälfte des Buchs, was eigentlich ein Verbrechen ist.<br/>Auch wenn ich von nun an alle Plottwists habe kommen sehen, habe ich Dead Romantics sehr gern gelesen. Klar, in der Mitte schwächelte der Spannungsbogen ein wenig und der Love Interest war zwischenzeitlich etwas blass. Aber allein die Protagonistin und die wundervolle Kulisse haben mich weiterlesen lassen. Das Ende war perfekt und so ausführlich, wie ich es nicht zu hoffen gewagt habe.<br/>Also: Lest dieses Buch, aber auf keinen Fall den Klappentext!
