The Afterdark by E. Latimer
dark
mysterious
tense
fast-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Loveable characters? No
5.0
Characters : 5/ 5 i mean at first you really don't root for the characters because they aren't your traditional main characters and i think it's always really hard to write characters that aren't loveable but some where along the way they grow on you? They became my monstrous girls
The way the characters are written too? at first I didn't love it but after a while I realized it was because it was so eerie??? The way that Evie was just so.... predatory? She was calm and calculating and unfazed instead of the normal anxious mess most teenagers are that I was extremely unsettled
Plot: 5/5 woah bro that plot twistthat stowe was a rook??? it had me squaking like a chicken in the middle of the night because you thought he was one character you root (pun intended) for
World building : 5/5 the eerie unsettling atmosphere was great
Writing style : 4/5 it was an adjustment but It really worked for the story
