Some of the story was ridiculously repetitive. Like I expected us to go into a deep dive on Walt's secrets because he was clearly an alcoholic. We couldn't go one chapter involving him that didn't include rum. 

Besides that though, the story was interesting. It was a bit slow to build up, but it all came together well, and the ending really threw me off. Pleasantly surprised for sure, I thought I had it all figured out.
