  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

1.5

main character is a FREAK

all that buildup for the whole 8 hour book just for it to be dropkicked into the toilet for the last 50 minutes (WHY were there like 20 plot twists) i hated this as a book but also couldn’t put it down so what does that say about me

also must add that the main character gives MAJOR joe from you vibes i can’t stop thinking about it
