    I had two problems with the book, one it was very predictable, and two the narrators' voices were so similar it was hard for me to tell them apart.
   I did like the story. I thought it was a more complex story than some mystery/thrillers. However, I knew who the killer was and what he'd done previously pretty early in the book. The big sign was right there staring you in the face. I wish the author had made it less obvious. 
  I did like the moral/lesson of the story. As well as the ending and the non-traditional main characters. While I don't usually prefer unlikable mcs the ones in this book were just relatable enough to make the book interesting.
   Overall, an okay book, with good but similarly voiced narrators.
