funny mysterious medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.75

Suppose a 3.75 is fair. It was a nice easy read if nothing else and only took a few hours in total. 

Was pleasant, not too intense like most others I have read. I would like to mention the N word hard R was a bit jarring to come across, as was the F slur ..... but I suppose .... it was of the times? Potentially? 

Either way, the plot did have many twists but it wasn't so intense as you read along which makes it quite nice!!! But also if you look for an intense read then maybe this isn't the one for you. 

Loved Win, thought he was a great addition and made me chuckle a lot, didn't really want to like him and thought I might hate him from his early sexism. Speaking of sexism, the book is kind of riddled with it. I shouldn't probably find it funny but there is a lot of talking about the size of the murder victims chest and it's weirdly quite hilarious how everyone knows who she is based on the fact she had a very large chest.
