dark
mysterious
tense
fast-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
I was into this murder-mystery thriller until the last 1/4 of the book, when there was a supernatural plot twist that was just lame and unnecessary. The constant mention of the main character’s alcohol consumption was also so unnecessary and again, just felt very unnecessary and tired.
