3.0

This book was labeled as feminist noir with queer characters, and it was in the teen section at the library, so I had a certain expectation of what this book would be like. It was not like my expectations, and I really don't think it belongs in the teen section. I did not like any of the characters, and didn't really understand them either. I didn't see what was feminist about it either, except possibly in a "support women's rights but mostly women's wrongs" way. I also expected a murder mystery and just got stuck with murder. There was one part I did like - each of the characters had point of view chapters, and it was interesting finding out what they knew about each other, what they thought the others knew about them, and what the others really did know about them.

3.75

the book ending is what pushed it from a solid 3 stars to 3.75. the final pieces of introspection really helped give all the characters real shape when before they all felt like they fit into stereotypical molds (ie violent-loner, the good girl, the academic, the token gay, the succubus, etc.)

I enjoyed the book but it was also kinda boring. I didn't really care for the characters that much but I did like the plot.
