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

4.75

the first few pages did not have my attention and I stopped reading after like 4% but decided to give it a second chance and thank god I did, I am a fan of mixed media but the fact that this book had no "narration" or the pov of one of the characters made it hard for me to get into it but once I was in there was no way out. 
The divisions were perfect and even tho I kept reading and did not have to wait like the fictional fans of infamous I was shocked nonetheless and felt like I had waited weeks each time a new episode began.

did I somehow (deep dow) guess? yes, but it was an amazing experience either way and the members of the podcast were truly...interesting characters, I have to admit I did like Serafini (even tho ACAB) but I'll allow it bc he's fictional and to be sincere I suspected everyone except him (yup, even Laila)

if you liked sadie or a good girl's guide to murder (and the format those books are written in) I definitely recommend giving this one a try

I was listening to It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding) by Bob Dylan while writing this review
