I didn't really care for this. I mainly kept going through the story because I wanted to uncover the mystery. The main character's inner monologue ranged from generally annoying to self-important. There was even a part where she calls a Black character's behavior "whining" because he was talking about how a plan she wanted to engage him in had the potential to get him arrested. Speaking of, the author did the annoying thing where she only identified someone's race if they weren't white.
I really didn't like howthe protagonist literally dissociates during sex because her fiancé ignored her wish to take things slowly, and it's just characterized as "bad sex" . Interesting premise, but not so great execution.
I really didn't like how
