I do think the parts of the book that were set in 1986 were somewhat cringy, as she tried to write realistic dialogues between the teenage main characters. This could be due to the translation though.
The buildup to the plot twist was great, and the ending really caught me off guard. Perfectly fine read if you're new to the genre and want to get a gist of what it can offer.
