A review by folklorisms
The Boyfriend by Freida McFadden

dark mysterious tense fast-paced

• 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

3.5

ngl i thought i had the big twist figured out and then something completely different swooped in and i choked on my hot chocolate
