I appreciated how fleshed out every part of this book was - morality, the judicial system, marital problems, issues with parents, insecurity in self, occupation, economic status, etc. It’s medium paced because it has to be, there’s so much to set up!! Flynn’s characters are rich and complex, this book is a great morality conversation starter. I wanted to read this book unravel and it never does (in a great way!) each plot point is unique and predictable only in the sense that something WILL happen, we just don’t know what it will be.
