highly recommend the audiobook for this, it's incredible!

one of the best cast of characters i've read in a while!! so much fun!!

reached the point where i understand about 13% of what's going on, but i'm still hooked! let's go do whatever we're about to do!

soooo into it. i really like john scalzi's writing style and pace. the perfect mix betweena procedural mystery and sci-fi

god i hate elliot. i hate him with so much passion. he's fixed on these women being hookers when there's not a single thing pointing to this, and dismisses grace's great theory and the only lead to have so far.

landel putting up with him is also ridiculous. i get that he's a sargeant, but he's literally messing with the case because of what? because he hates women?

when you have the perfect suspect but the book is only ay 65%..... it's the mystery equivalent to when the couple gets together too early and you just know something is about to happen

didn't think i'd like this as much as i am! feels like watching an episode of law and order: svu.

i thought i'd be confused by the number of characters, but while i do think some of them are not necessary, i'm not confused either, so it's a win!

now, about the little transcriptions on the beginning of the chapter about that case detective grace investigates by herself... quite obvious what happened to the little girl, what a horrible thing 3

thinking about how it connects to grace. she is either emma or emma's child, that's my guess

slightl spoilers ahead

okay, no idea about the murders, but they're probably connected, though i really don't know how... also howard's house being broken into but nothing being taken + the marks on the locked cabinet? someone was definitely looking for something.

i think this guy is in some sort of witness protection... that's the only thing that makes sense right now... why else would you not investigate the most suspicious guy??

can't believe i got the arc!! i love action romances so much, so this is right up my alley.

it's been very fun so far, and i love shepherd!!

However, Pearce and Newton took those beliefs to an extreme. To them, Sullivan’s research on the benefits of communal living showed that the traditional focus on the nuclear family [...] was the cause of all mental illness, and therefore all societal problems.

can you imagine creating a theory that maybe people can get better if they live in community and your student thinks yes, absolutely. in a cult.

book so bad i'm 1/3 in and i already have four pages on my notes app about everything i hate about it.

also, i thought it was so weird how preston heard effy's story and then talked about how she deserved more than the boys from college... like yes, she does, but it was so random, i felt like i had skipped over a page accidentally.

(but i love preston. he's such a soft boy)

this has been such a mixed bag for me... the story itself is interesting, the atmosphere is great, i love how it is written with us not knowing if effy is crazy or truly seeing things, but at the same time is so slow. like, 55% percent of the book and i've barely seen any actual development with the story or the character.
