Brie
[ ℹ️ I read this for an IRL book club. ]
I found this book while browsing NPR's "Books We Love".
This was a fun, light read. Yet, there were a few surprisingly bittersweet and tender moments in the book. The author's passages of dialogue are good: there's no need for "he said" or "she said" and the reader always knows who is speaking.
I did not particularly care for many of the characters. Steve experienced some growth but the others were one-note and uninteresting: I did not feel very vested in their fates.
Using ChatGPT to disguise the criminal's voice was a new twist on an old genre. I don't like the idea of reading a book that contains content that was generated in part by ChatGPT (even if susbsequently edited). The book carries no disclaimer about this one way or the other.
🐈 Also: I expected more cats.
