A review by nappower
Origin by Diana Abu-Jaber

4.0

liked this mysteryish/find the killer quite a lot though i thought it did go on for a bit long. the main character not only has to solve a string of infant murders but the mystery of her own parentage and beginnings. i adore abu-jaber's memoir, language of baklava, so i was glad to see her skillful fiction prose work. though i found her writing great, especially for this genre, i kept on mixing up the peripheral female characters in the book. also, every serial killer storyline reminds me of dexter. but that is neither here nor there.
