reflective
tense
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
Complicated
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
When I finally got into it, the plot was interesting enough to have me reading pretty quickly. I liked the focus on the characters over the plot, which is unusual in thriller books. The plot was clever and the twists were alright, but not as good as I hoped. I was underwhelmed after seeing the rave reviews, but I understand why people like it. I just didn't love it. I think it could have been much shorter as well.
