20sidedbi's review against another edition

dark emotional tense fast-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? Yes

1.25

This is still a poorly written book that handles topics of sexual violence extremely badly. But the plot finally seems to matter and the characters are starting to feel like people instead of caricatures.
