  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No

  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

A slow and confusing start with Henry’s POVs after having a five month gap between the first novel and this. It did end up kicking into gear, and once it did it became mental. I also have mixed feelings about the ending. 

Granted I wasn’t a huge fan of Fake Fin. Or backstory with Michael. 


Overall this story seemed a bit unnecessary.
