the plot doesn’t take off till past 40% bc the MC has every excuse to not listen to the tape yet! I’d say this is not a mystery with mindblowing “oh, shit!” twists—MC conveniently ignores a lot of suspicious wordings that a reader does not, and the foreshadowing is a bit heavy-handed—but while you may guess the big surprises correctly, the details are more elusive, plus there are some well placed red herrings (my favorite being the “oh no he’s hot” sort-of-subplot lol).

a character is groped and very uncomfortable about it, but no one else acknowledges itjavafenn's review against another edition
