adventurous dark medium-paced
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

4.0

This is more of a three and a half really, which is a little disappointing. ABAB moves slower than I would like - I struggled to get to 60%, but once you hit 75% it moves at a fair clip. The swap in perspectives can sometimes be confusing or jarring, as the other POV character doesn’t start having chapters until about a quarter of the way through. There were times where I found myself more interested by one of the side characters and wishing for more about them.
