Leech (2022)

2 stars

Review of 'Leech' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

The book started well, at least for the first 100 pages. I liked the main concept of the book; the story viewed from the point of view of a parasite that monopolizes health services all over the world.
The snippets of worldbuilding were intriguing enough to hold my attention but were confusing at times.

The bad: the plot is all over the place. It reaches a point where it looks like a completely different book than the one I was reading. All the unnecessary family and town drama just wasn't for me and I lost all my interest, hence the two stars rating. I'm disappointed because it looked very promising.
