dark tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

I nearly ditched this book towards the end of the first half because I thought the narrator was just unbearable (lots of comments about other women’s weight/appearance/male centric gaze bullshit). Glad I stuck it out but would have lost this book if it weren’t for listening to it on audiobook in the car.
