Quick read with good pacing. It has short chapters and differing view points, he does a good job with conversations and perspectives. Overall, the book was fine. I’d recommend it. Wasn’t stunning literary prose but it was captivating.

I wanna give it 4 stars for the full plot but this book has a lot of character building that were too long and very uninteresting lol. I had to skim a lot of those to get through the plot. For example the first scene after the "prolog". About 2 law professors talking about dressing to look the part (as law professor). I get what it was trying to do, introducing our main character. But it felt so pointless and boring. And this book has a lot of that.
But it's paid off by the layers of the reveals. It wasn't even convoluted but it was built so well. The timeline in storytelling also helps, it went back and forth in time.
