• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

I’m pretty sure that a year or two ago, I listened to a podcast about this book. Despite that, the book was still enjoyable and I didn’t remember all of the twists and turns, which was a plus.

I had completely forgotten that Matthew and Richard were the same person, so it still came as a surprise when unveiled.

All in all, this book is a good, quick read.
