dark tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

this was gunning to be a 5 star read for me until the end. i feel that the pacing towards the end was rushed, and i was left wanting more. there were certain characters and storylines that did not get closure that i would have liked to explore more, particularly Dre’s. i think an extra 50 pages or so would’ve been well worth it.
