nicolealycia 's review for:

The Maid by Nita Prose
3.0
mysterious slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

I struggled with this one…
I wasn’t a fan of the way Molly was depicted. I thought she was very obviously neurodivergent but I didn’t like that it was never addressed. As a result I didn’t like the way the other characters were depicted around her. It made some of them, especially the detective, seem truly incompetent and quite idiotic in my opinion. 
I definitely don’t get the hype. I would have enjoyed it more if she was described as a neurodivergent character who was going through all this and the people around her were aware. Maybe that’s just me though. 
I don’t think I’m going to keep going with this series because I don’t think it’s for me.
