Found a reading online with sound effects and video clips included for reference. It made all the difference, seeing that I'm not old enough to get half of the references. I was still doing a lot of research in between chapters to make sure I could picture all the events correctly, but it was worth it and I could have gone without if it was a bother.
Read the second one too though. The end isn't as satisfying without the second book.
Captivating. A little hard to follow all of the characters and all of their roles in the storytelling. Still one of my top thrillers so far; it stayed curious from cover to cover.
Slow read. Good ending, perfect twist. Potential spoiler:
Rape is a reoccurring theme, so caution is advised.
