I liked the premise. I was intrigued by the mystery that had to be solved along with references to magic and brujeria to see h9w that plays out. But alas, it does suffer a similar problem to Persona 4 about who the true suspect is. And the main character was pretty insufferable because ho boy was she making some questionabke choices even with the trauma and drama going on. The things I was interested in was more on the side. I know, the author did say this was a personal journey but I expected something way different.
Moderate: Violence and Death
Some sex scenes, more quickies than anything. Honestly felt weird to read. Just as weird as the few mentions of breasts when there was absolutely zero reason to mention them.
