Wow I had such a great time with this. Sometimes you just need to read a really amazing story right?
Maurice Swift is such a horrible main character and yet I couldn’t wait to see what devious tricks he would get up to next. It really is such a great character study, as well as a page-turning story. As the layers to his character start to peel away I became more horrified but also more fascinated by him. So good.
