  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? No

3.5

3.5 stars rounded up. For reference, I listened to the audiobook which I enjoyed. Even the Aussie accents were pretty good, considering the voice actor is American. 

This book is unique and refreshing in it's approach and really focuses on the victim and her life instead of the perpetrator. A lot of interesting commentary on the media’s treatment of young, white female victims and gender etiquette.
