In some ways, it feels terrifyingly akin to school shooters today with the mass of damage caused, but I also think that analogy is one noted and flat. Same with the ways in which our bad characters were portrayed. They felt one note and flat, doing exactly what you'd expect bad characters to do. Use too many slurs, cause physical violence, and think about sex.Â
I get why people enjoy this book and the plot. It's a unique telling of the event and the story is interesting despite the one notedness. If you want a simple horror story to lose yourself to, it's an ok choice!Â
