dark mysterious tense slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

This is the first time I felt "meh" about Joe Hill. I have loved everything I have read to date by him except this didn't wow me. It wasn't that scary, tense, or edge of your seat. Only a few parts were interesting but over it was just meh.
