mirivii's review against another edition

dark tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

I really struggled to get into the story at the begging, couldn’t understand where it was going. Glad I stuck with it because it took a turn after the first 30 pages. Didion’s writing style is amazing but felt over dramatic at some point.
