challenging dark emotional sad tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

Terrifying in several ways, the book still manages to evoke sympathetic emotion for many of the characters. It suffers a bit from a collection of unreliable narrators, but gradually I was able to discern the story that Johnson desired to portray.
