This book felt very flat in my opinion. Even though it’s first person, every sentence was very matter-of-fact, particularly in Asa’s case. His own POV felt ironically aware of being an asshole, like we were reading how Sloan thinks Asa would act or feel. Don’t get me wrong, he’s definitely the bad guy, but his perspective didn’t feel like it was written as the villain.
