tostita's review against another edition

dark mysterious tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? No

4.0

A little bit slow to get started, but that was necessary to lay all the groundwork for the rest of the story. I found the characters compelling and was drawn in by the colonial Singapore setting, an area I had little to no familiarity with beforehand. I immediately sought out the sequel upon finishing.
