  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix

  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

Very twisty and turny, but ultimately very predictable. Disappointing in terms of how the perpetrators (yes, multiple) of violence were able to use wealth and status to be above any means of being held accountable, which does not feel like something worth continuing, even in a book form when we know that’s rampant in real life. The story structure is interesting and the way the story is revealed is very well done. The plot is just not great.
