mysterious
tense
slow-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? N/A
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
This book doesn't work for me, sadly.
I feel so indifferent about it as a whole. Character-wise, I found most of them to be insufferable. We love morally gray or flawed characters, sure. You still need to give more background info/personality though. So I can understand where they're coming & make it more fun to read. I just need more depth in their characterization, that's all.
Since I don't really root for these characters, various questionable decisions that they make through out the story just annoy me greatly.
Even the mystery plot can't save this one for me.
I have no idea how to rate this type of book, so I will keep it at no rating.
