dark
slow-paced

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
