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

2.0

I don’t know if the repetitive scenes were meant to build tension but I wanted to pull my hair out by the end every time I read about Roach drinking Dark Fruits or Laura putting together an outfit. I just didn’t like the characters enough to enjoy this, and there were “deleted scenes” at the end of my copy but I thought no way am I reading these when those that made the cut dragged on quite long enough
