clairemitchell 's review for:
The Teacher
by Freida McFadden
dark
funny
mysterious
fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Strong character development:
No
Loveable characters:
Complicated
The twist at the end alone was worth 1/2 star. Not my favorite book, but I breezed through it, grateful for the pacing and shifting POVs.
Content Warnings
Graphic: Adult/minor relationship, Pedophilia, Toxic relationship
Moderate: Bullying, Infidelity, Pedophilia, Rape, Violence, Death of parent, Murder, Gaslighting
Minor: Alcoholism, Bullying
The kids were well written, they thought like teens in a way that made the adult/minor relationship difficult (in a gross and heartbreaking, pedophilia way) to read. On the other end, there were some instances when I audibly laughed because the inner dialogue of one of the characters was so funny.
