This was a rec from my parents, as someone who generally reads from the perspective of a strong female character- john corey rlly threw me. John is a guys guy. He's a self described arrogant sexist pig, all the women in his life are well aware and tell him that he's arrogant, yet they still sleep with him lol. I liked the mystery and learning about the long island history and geography.
TW:SA also rlly sad that my fav character EW was r-worded and then murdered! I can understand the murder but the R*pe was unecessary and then the author spun it that the perp only did it bc of john corey's smart ass.
