challenging
dark
fast-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? No
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
3.5
I wish I knew the original play, because I think it would have been interesting to see how the retelling altered different elements etc. generally, it was an interesting read but an absolutely horrifying ending
