2.0
None of the characters were in any way redeemable, the plot was really boring until chapter 7, and chapters 7-8 were the only reasons this book got a 2 rather than a 1. Characters were also really boring and honestly kinda stupid. Also they were all really racist, antisemitic, and misogynistic. I know it reflects the times, but the fact that none of them were in any way good kinda screwed that up.
Graphic: Sexism, Death, Infidelity, Gore, Misogyny, Racism, and Antisemitism
