Very fun. Could have used some more explanation in some places and told a sum more than it showed.
I do love the Count of Monte Cristo and this was a fun retelling that managed to not feel derivative.
Dialogue could use so work.
Not looking forward to the
inevitable love triangle of the best book, particularly when we got the barest hint that Cayo might lean aroace. That would be a nice way to settle the love triangle I guess. Also, Roth came out of nowhere. There was no satisfying build up to that he was just suddenly THERE with all the answers.
