Four Letter Word by Gretchen McNeilMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Izzy’s mom has planned for her to study abroad in Italy and Izzy has looked forward to leaving her boring life behind. When Alberto, an Italian foreign exchange student, moves in with them, she realizes that her life isn’t as boring as she thought. Izzy is also a true crime fan and has been following a case of a serial killer in San Francisco. When the murderer seems to have traveled north, Izzy wonders if Alberto is who he says he is.
Four Letter Word is a predictable mystery that was still enjoyable to read. McNeil was able to put in a few unexpected twists and turns, but the trajectory of the story followed the usual path. I was satisfied with the ending, but I only recommend this for those who need a simple escape and not a heart-pounding mystery.
