wow. just wow. i was on the edge of my seat. the characters are so charming, i found myself falling in love with them all. i cried. a lot. i’m a sap. 

it had a fair amount of funny moments too, among all the darkness that is the murder they unravel. 

so glad this was recommended to me, i would recommend it too.

Predictable, reinforces nice guy trope and the main character is creepy in his interest in Lila, despite her repeated rejections. Bad commentary on sexual assault.
