I know it's not perfect—some characters are thinly fleshed out, it critiques true crime as a genre without ever truly being able to escape it—but it had me hooked and it had me ponder and, for me, that's enough.
(I also found it cathartic reading about a private school and realising what bizarre, intense, and intoxicating places they can be.)
