If We Were Villains by M.L. Rio
4.0
challenging dark emotional funny hopeful mysterious reflective sad tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

The mystery is done so well. If you can read foreshadowing, then it id clear to you how the story ends but I enjoyed the ways the author explored the mystery. 
The characters have their archetypes but are still multidimensional which is a very nice contrast that we can often see when comparing fiction and reality; something that in this piece is combined and the line between the two is blurred.
