dark mysterious tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

is it wrong that i felt this was a bit overhyped. i can see the potential of me liking other camus books that are longer more because i really enjoyed the writing style but everything happened too quickly and there was no time for the story to settle, become sprawling and the end to become inevitable realisation for the reader.
