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

This was a good fast paced mystery for the first 60% of the book, constantly keeping you guessing and not knowing who to believe or what could have happened to Avery. Then once the big twist was revealed it all came to a halt and felt unrealistic.

Avery being the “mastermind” behind the whole thing felt very much like the Netflix show “The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window” basically a total goof.

 
I partly enjoyed the ending cause it felt like a good form of justice but kind of wished we got to see more of the fallout.
