Review: The Night Swim

The Night Swim by Megan Goldin
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Without a doubt, the true crime podcast Serial took the world by storm when it was first released in 2014. In Megan Goldin's The Night Swim, our protagonist hosts a fictional podcast reminiscent of this cultural phenomenon. The book weaves a tale of a current sexual assault case and trial, while there is an older murder that must also be solved.

Definitely enjoyed this one - well written, fast paced, and a timely topic. It does a great job pairing a cold case murder investigation with a courtroom drama. I enjoyed seeing multiple POVs and it was cool to see some chapters written as "episodes" of the podcast.

I recommend this when it releases!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for an ARC. All opinions are my own.
