dark emotional mysterious sad medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

The book should've been called "Mercy McAlpine can't cache a break" cause damn, woman must've been a serial killer in her past life to end up with this.

Not bad read, though it did loop around for a bit. There was this feeling of "informative dumping" where I will be like: "woh, woh, wait what?".
& the ending wasn't THE cleanest. I guess that's realistic, but I wanted something MORE.

Anyway, a good(?) story.
