  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

5 million stars for this absolute fxxking knockout of a book. Fxxk everyone who focuses on the utter bullshit “intelligence”, “promise” and - I will never understand - “attractiveness” of The Defendant, aka the OG incel. 
All of the women who were killed by that pathetic, small, insolent loser are the ones who were intelligent, had promising futures, and were robbed of a chance to fulfill their dreams.  
Read this book.
