4.5 ⭐️
Similar to Yellowface, I very much enjoyed this one without really liking a single character. Everyone is a bit too much of whatever they are but it works. The amplified emotion from the POVs you read make everything a little extra heightened and it works. The exaggeration to the point of killing.
Loved the twist about halfway through the book. Made it much more interesting to see the full story come together.
