dark mysterious slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

2.0

I don't think the book did anything anything technically wrong, but it's not really to my taste. The "reveal" didn't do it for me.
