Hangman by Maya Binyam
mysterious
reflective
medium-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

This is an interesting debut from an author with a unique narrative voice.
The first half is spent adjusting to that voice and finding your place in the story but then quickly, the story clicks and it becomes quite apparent what’s happening. While I enjoyed it a lot more from that point on, and upon reread would most likely appreciate this book a lot more, it’s a little too on the nose and expected to make as big an impact as it could.
