The Helsinki Affair by Anna Pitoniak

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

I got through half of the book before I realized I had no idea what was going on or what the stakes were LOL. There’s a lot of timeline jumping but its all very loose and flowy but in a way that ends up making everything a bit confusing. I also still dont understand how the plots tied together.

But the spy shit was lowkey kinda fun.
