8:59:29 by Polly Schattel
3.0
dark fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

As a horror novella, 8:59:29 was pretty average. It is difficult to really develop characters in a novella, but Hetta, the protagonist, was extremely forgettable. The motivations behind her actions were questionable and ultimately I was looking for more horror and more of a connection to Hetta and her cause.
