You Know What You Did by K.T. Nguyen
2.0
dark tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Predictable and frustrating, I do admit I came back to it after almost DNF’ing around the 25% mark. Was the resolution worth it? Eah. Glad I finished it in any case so I could stop wondering. 

This book suffers the most from poor pacing. I think if 100 pages had been cut and the plot tightened up from there, this could have been a fantastic one-day read. There were some interesting bits in the beginning and toward the end, but the middle dragged unbearably. 

I might give this author another shot, but it would need to have a more interesting premise than this one.
