dark emotional funny informative inspiring mysterious reflective tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes

3.5

this had me HOOKED literally ate it up, made up theories and speculated about everything
justice for my boy von he did nothing wrong!!!!
also Dre. i fucking love dre come home babe the kids miss you
3* because a few characters were left which i would have loved to see more of
belle, dre, jack, even ruby like cmon where did they gooo

got a few good laughs out of it, almost made me cry once 
that reveal about von's dad being on death roll the last time von ever saw him??? like stfu i was gonna THROW. UP.

overall i enjoyed it thoroughly, got my mind moving and all that, very quick to read and the writing was pretty easy to read too so!
great one!!
