dark fast-paced

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

3.0

This is honestly like a looking at a car crash. It sucks and it’s hard but for some reason you can’t look away. The writing is shit and the clear misogyny is enraging but I just keep reading it just to see what happens. Honestly, if I wasn’t a fan of the show I wouldn’t even bother.

I mean, if any type of content warning turns you off of a book, don’t read this. So far, only 5 deep in the series and it’s pretty much got everything.

Honestly kind of boring and it’s interesting to meet the governor but he’s a sick man so it’s disturbing to read.
