A review by ririsbooks
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 twist
that 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
