dark mysterious tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

5.0

Wow. This was so dark and thrilling, edge of your seat book. I don't know if I'll read the second book because:

it could have ended by them being safe because so much happened in their life. Also, Melvin breaking out of prison feels a bit over the top.
