Posted: 19 Sep 2021, 15:02
[Following is a volunteer review of "Me Inside" by Martha Miller.]
Danger might be coming to you, but you experience it if you go snooping around trying to get involved in a murder case. Me Inside by Martha Miller is a fiction book that captures the life of a teenage girl who tried to solve a murder case. Sylvia Jean's life had taken a new spin after her mother left her and her father. Her father, who returned from prison, was murdered, and she wanted to find out who had murdered the only man that had truly loved her. She intends to embark on this mission with the help of her best friend, Ruthie. Life wasn’t a bed of roses for her, as she tried to work on other sides of her life alongside acting as a detective with Ruthie. Will she succeed in her mission?
There are many positive aspects to this book, and I will gladly point them out. I fell in love with the author’s writing style and the suspense in this book. At each turn and every lead Jean and Ruthie got, I felt they were closer to cracking the case and finding those who were involved in the murder of Walter Baker.
The author did well in unfolding the story till the very end. Also, the author's expressions through her characters and her use of the figures of speech to add beauty to her writing style were areas that caught my heart mostly. An example was when Jean thought her mother's love for her father must have been empty as her bedroom was the day they realized she was gone.
A character I could relate with was Jean because of her resilient nature. She strives to get what she wants. Her losses have made her selfish, which prompted reactions whenever she felt she would lose Ruthie to Legs. I liked Ruthie too. She's unarguably a better detective than Jean. She seems to observe more that goes behind the scenes.
Furthermore, I liked how the story took a different twist than I had expected. It was nice to get caught off guard by the book. And I think it was awesome not to be able to predict the end of a book.
There was nothing I disliked about the book. It was excellent and exceptionally edited, and I couldn’t find any errors. Consequently, I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars. I recommend this book to those in the LGBTQ+ community, mystery, suspense, and adventure lovers. Younger readers can avoid this book due to its adult content.
