emotional
mysterious
fast-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? Plot
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? Yes
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
4.0
Hear me out π³ππ
The idea behind the book is brilliant π
I even read all in the span of a few hours on the beach β±
But
I found the writing
style a bit
choppy and
(very) fragmented.
I sometimes thought that it had to be some kind of joke - but it was not. The characters didn't necessarily fell flat, but they didn't feel authentic or real either, but, AgAiN, for a book this short you kind of have to expect it.
I would probably re-read it once again in the near future just to pick up on more clues that I may have missed.
Nice, easy read if you are not a most pretentious reader like myself.
++really interesting plot (the premise not so much)
