The Secret History by Donna Tartt
2.5
It's a really well written book. The characters are all insufferable. One wants to randomly rape his friend. Another has surprise incest . Then characters felt 2D with their problematic behavior.
The book should have been half as long as it is.
Also, while I usually love when authors read their own books... this is pretty badly done. Bunny's accent was painful.
It felt like a book that wanted to teach us something, but wasn't quite able to make it there. The only character I liked was the token woman. Because someone has to exist to beabused .
But again, really pretty prose.
