- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
5.0
These characters are wonderful. All About Romance was right to call them flawed but intensely loveable. Jem is a con man, and doesn’t have many people to love, and he is incredibly loyal. Tean is always reciting statistics about the terrible state of ….well anything. This annoys most of Tean’s friends, but Jem thinks it’s hilarious. He goes all in and teases Tean about it, even upping the ante.

The teasing and laughter is a joy to read, and the mystery is compelling and well-revealed.
BUT READ THE CONTENT WARNINGS. There is a lot of hard stuff to read in this book, including sexual assault of a minor and an ongoing toxic relationship where a side character regularly gets someone drunk so they will agree to sex.
