mersatz 's review for:

The Vacancy in Room 10 by Seraphina Nova Glass
2.0

Not a fan of using "poor people's hijinks" as comic relief for the "real characters".

All of Anna's chapters are a drag because she's unwittingly a foil for Cass and Callum's plans; so the reader hates her for inserting herself into everyone's business.

These thriller authors always make the mistake of turning the bad guy into an actual demon instead of preserving some bit of nuance.
