dark tense medium-paced

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

2.5

While I feel for the circumstances of the main female characters and how sucky their world was, I still didn't care for them or found that the story was written well etc. just not a great story stylistically
