They Called Me Wyatt by Natasha Tynes

 I finally finished Natasha Tynes' They Called Me Wyatt, largely because I was overthinking it as I read it.

I attended graduate school in London with the author, and remembered her doing the footwork for this even back in 2001-2002. Forethought is important, and worked well here.

She has a clever surprise ending that required some dedicated thinking, and long hours. Not easy with children, and a full-time DC job. Evidence of dedicated focus is visible.

There were a few small wording quirks that were easily read through, and faded as content grew in strength. Transition was pretty good, and will also likely improve with even more book writing.

Length was another carefully well planned, or lucky, part at some 257 pages. It wasn't too long, too short, and didn't seem to waste any words.

It was a good 2020 Summer read.
