not a bad book by any means, but very confusing and hard to get into. from character names heavily being dropped in the beginning and throughout to the context of the murder investigation... i'm still not 100% on what happened exactly, but part of me also enjoys the open endedness of everything. it kept my attention the whole way through; i just wish i had more clarity on everything and how it's all meant to intertwine.
