dark emotional mysterious tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? N/A
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

This was book was really interesting and I found myself not wanting to put the book down, at first it was a little slow but once you reach a few chapters it it gets really good but the ending had me questioning whether what I was reading was actually what happened.
