Well, I hated just about every character! Except for Abagail, who was used, and Josh (was it? John?) who I totally understood his anger at everyone for not understanding their privilege. Especially Maylee, what a little self-centered careless sociopath she was. Wasn't sad to see her go, to be honest! Nolan was annoying AF, with his constant, insistent, and illogical bigfoot theories! Though in the end, I guess I see how that led to the conclusion. But goodness was he ANNOYING! 
The narration was excellent. And the conclusion to the mystery was unique, not who you'd expect. But boy was the journey hard to get through, with annoying Nolan it was very difficult.
