Akuma no Riddle: Riddle Story of Devil, Vol. 1 by Yun Kouga

mysterious tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

2.5

This was an okay read for me. But I really struggled to get into it.. It absolutely bothered me that Haru only referred to herself in third person. That's something I don't really vibe with. Other than that I found the premise to be really interesting but the execution so far seems a bit dull to me.

Yes, there was an assassination attempt. But it didn't go very far and somehow I struggle to believe they will get more creativ/thrilling.

And the characters also weren't all that interesting to me (although I do guess that still has mainly to do with Haru...)
