Never Saw Me Coming by Vera Kurian
5.0
dark mysterious tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Had me hooked from the beginning and I couldn’t stop reading.

It has a woman striving to avenge a wrong, it has psychopaths, and it kind of has dark academia vibes set in DC? Check, check, and CHECK.

Some things had me rolling my eyes, but in the end I enjoyed it a lot more than another mystery/thriller that I gave five stars this month (Jan 2022 for reference) and I think this is one that could be recommended to anyone so FIVE STARS.
