Review: Law of Attraction

Law of AttractionLaw of Attraction: A Novel by Allison Leotta

Summary (from Goodreads): Allison Leotta’s debut introduces Anna Curtis, a young assistant U.S. attorney whose personal and professional lives collide dangerously when one of her domestic violence cases turns into a murder.

My Thoughts: Law of Attraction is a fast, entertaining read. While this genre often is somewhat formulaic and predictable, this particular novel didn’t quite fit the mold. There were plenty of developments throughout the plot that I just didn’t see coming, and a few where I wonder how I missed them. The big twist at the end, I had no idea. Absolutely none. It is so very, very nice to have that happen! Normally I can see the big twist coming halfway through a novel. Not in Law of Attraction. There is a lot going on, and the plot points are well developed. Most of the characters are well-developed, with layers and facets of their personality that make them more human. Law of Attraction sucked me in from the very beginning, and didn’t let me go until the very end.

Speaking of the end … I do wonder if this is meant to be a series. Not necessarily a continuous series, but more of a series of separate stories centered on the same person (or people). You know, like the Alex Cross books by James Patterson. Anyway, there were some questions I wanted answered by the end – questions about Anna and Nick, for one. There are other questions, too, but I don’t want to reveal too much! ;-)

Overall, this was a great, enjoyable book. I’m glad to have had the opportunity to read (and review) it.

My Rating: 4 stars
