All controversy about the author aside, this was a 1,024 page page-turner about violence against women and right-wing hate. It was well-written and a good addition to the series and furthering developing the characters. I could see how it being about an online hate campaign could be self-indulgent. I don't condone what she's tweeting but found no evidence of the same in the book (not that it lets her off the hook).

*3.5 stars. It pains me to give this that low of a rating, cuz I’m normally giving these books 5 stars.
