Listen, the story for this is fine enough. From the little I did I read I can admit, it was relatively interesting. However this book is written in such an annoying way it I feel genuine pain trying to understand the words. What is the problem you ask? The book does not EVER say who is saying what line at any point. Just straight up dialogue in quotations without a hint of who is actually speaking. Now I know you don’t need to say who is saying what for every single piece of dialogue when people are just going back and forth, but literally NONEof the dialogue ever says who is talking. So you have to just try and figure it out based on context to understand who is talking, quite the struggle when you barely know anything about the characters yet. It is incredibly frustrating not from a direct storytelling perspective, but instead from the writer clearly not knowing how to write. Please do not read this book, and if you for some reason feel like you need to, look up a sample of the first couple of pages so you can understand how painful this book is.
