Other People's Clothes by Calla Henkel

dark mysterious tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

3.5

For everything I did understand about this books (competition between friends, the line between female friendship and obsession, art as performance, the media's fascination with female murder victims, etc) there were a lot of choices I felt distracted by, especially as the mystery is unraveling in the last 100 pages or so. However, I really haven't read anything like this ever and it's startling to me how much I enjoyed the thriller aspects of it.
