POPPET by Mo Hayder ***

I gotta say this one was mildly interesting but when you're done reading it you end up with a lot of questions instead of answers. Poppets are some voodoo dolls by the way. Some idiot in the mental ward makes them. Yup.

It takes place mostly at a mental institution so you gotta know everyone's a flake even the staff and of course one of them is a weirded out killer, I won't give you a hint but a dog is poisoned, stupid ass killer.

Meantime  you travel between a cop Cafferty dealing with some diver named Flea who is protecting her brother or so it seems, she was going to tell him more stuff to solve other stuff but that never came to fruition. Which is noted and hated. THANKS for nothing.

Then the ending is left for you to figure out; the girl meets up with the guy and is she the one in the woods all the time or was Issac? What the hell is she doing meeting up with him hiding out in some freakin tree in the middle of the woods? So many questions so little answers. So I can't give it a really great recommendation. I would say if you don't mind being led around by your nose ring go ahead and read it, most of it is interesting/weird and you keep wanting to know more then you get the no answer part.

Naturally this is a Brit writer. Tally ho. They always make everything so confusing and strange. I wonder why that is?
