The Spider and Her Demons by sydney khoo

Did not finish book. Stopped at 30%.

I’m too bored. I don’t wanna dismiss this book as being all about “teenage girl drama”, but there’s a lot of interest surrounding one of the main characters, Dior, and I just don’t care about her at all. It was also really hard to read about the abuse that Zhi experiences from her aunt - I hope by the end of the book Zhi realises that she doesn’t deserve to be treated that way. 
I will say that I grew up in Sydney and khoo captures the city really well. I loved what little horror there was.
