Amazed I made it through. Every female character (especially the teenaged one) is hyper-sexualized. talks of sexual assult (of minors) that’s not addressed with any tact imo. the main characters also jump to insane conclusions all the time which really makes it hard to believe any part of the plot isn’t predestined (is that the point?? idk what point he’s even trying to make). but the central mystery was intriguing i guess so i persevered
