julessssss's review against another edition
dark
mysterious
tense
fast-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? Plot
- Strong character development? No
- Loveable characters? No
1.0
this really didn't work for me - it felt really cliche and the writing itself at times was annoying to me (almost like parts were supposed to be humorous, but I didn't think they were)
the story probably could have used more page space to its benefit because all of the characters fell flat for me
also the section at the end about the detective's daughter?? there was no need for it and I am SICK of men writing random scenes about women (HIS DAUGHTER) doing sexual things for no reason
I think I may try another one of his works, especially because it seems like others like his stuff
overall, I was disappointed (thanks BookTok)
