Death Note + Person of Interest

Revisado: 12-13-22 El oyente recibió este título gratis

This is the first book I’ve read written by someone I found on TikTok, and what a great start to the #writertok community!
Sui grows from a “literally me” Everyman to a narcissist with delusions of grandeur, and the transformation is as much fun to read as it is terrifying in places.
And since the book is almost exclusively fixed on this transformation, I was as captivated by it as I was with Death Note’s Light Yagami.
And like Light, Sui eventually faces the consequences for his actions, which was a good place to end.
My biggest issue, though, was the lack of a consistent, present threat, apart from Sui’s own anxiety. The antagonists, particularly the detective and the psychologist, feel like they dip in and out of the story because they don’t actively obstruct him. No one does, except Ian, who only does it near the end of the book.
But I really can’t complain too much because, like I said, I enjoyed it a lot.
