I got confused a few times because of the different names and nicknames. I had most of it figured out before the reveal, but the big one did get me. It's very much a plot driven kind of book. The writing is a bit stilted sometimes, but that might be just because it's translated.

Similar vibes with Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None. 7 friends stayed in an abandoned house with tragic history, when one by one, they became victims of revengeful murderer. Is it one of them? Or an outsider? This book doesn’t care much to hide who is the murderer. The why and how are the real questions. Quite a simple case, and I love how the murderer is not at all with flawless skills.
