Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I’m really disappointed with this book. The description made it sound like it could be really fun. But unfortunately, the idea was not executed well at all and so the book just ended up being really boring and repetitive.

I wouldn’t class this as YA like it is said to be on NetGalley, as it just felt like it was written for kids - apart from the swearing of course. Was also classed as LGBTQIA+ on NetGalley, but that aspect was barely there.

Was a short read though and it was nice to read a book that is set in Sweden. The book has been translated from Swedish into English, so maybe it packs more of a punch in its native language? I don’t know.

Thank you to NetGalley and Hot Key Books for an advance copy in exchange for an honest review.
