One of the Good Guys by Araminta Hall
4.25
adventurous challenging dark emotional tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Infuriating (complimentary). That's how this book made me feel. Is it a horror book if it's a reflection of real life? (Yes). 

I don't think I've ever hated a main character more. Hall effortlessly crafted narratives and taglines and bullshit that I see and hear everyday online and in-person. So many times I caught myself frowning or rolling my eyes at something. The anxiety of womanhood is weaved through this book, it genuinely made my skin itchy at times. And I certainly wasn't expecting the ending. An excellent read.
