I won’t stop talking about this book. It’s grim, weird, and full of wonder.

I’m with others. I really wanted to like this, but I guessed the murderer and motive pretty early on. There was an odd lack of complexity here and they recapped the murder about three times at the end. Odd. 
Character motivations were muddy and many of the characters seemed blind and 2d.
