I am so disappointed.
The book was hypocritical, pretending to stand up for some social issues and high morals, whilst excusing the worst behaviour, and promoting prejudice and dismissiveness. It was all performative platitudes.
No consistency.
The most ridiculous reason for the murderer to murder.
I absolutely hated the main character - no character arc, terrible personality, zero morals. But she was poor, so it's okay. Apparently.
I gave it two stars only because there was a moment between 20 and 60% where I was somewhat intrigued.
