Protagonists are not good people. The situation sucks, the people suck but have tiny redeeming qualities. You don’t feel glad when the protagonists have a win. Story and plot were ok. I only finished it to see how things ended up, but didn’t feel good about reading any page of this book.

I’ve been reading the webtoon for a while. The book is absolutely amazing. I normally can’t get lost in books that I read on electronics. Not Even Bones is a rare exception and I’m excited to read the rest of the series.
