The Cruelty by Scott Bergstrom
3.0
Probably 3.5 Stars
I liked this one and it sped by, but there were some unexpectedly dark and sad topics discussed. I enjoyed it but I also didn’t like the ending. It wasn’t very conclusive and overall the whole book just left me a bit meh. So many loose threads never answered, no satisfying ending, and the characters from the beginning I forgot existed because of how quickly they moved on.
Edit: just found out there’s a sequel. Not sure if I’m going to read it, but it exists. So there’s that.
