I really liked the concept of this one and felt the author was pretty original in the storyline. We followed two different timelines that focused on the same two - sort of three - characters in each. Personally, the current timeline was much more entertaining and I wish had more face time. Both timelines did feel a bit disjointed, and some of the build ups didn’t really pay off (especially the plot twists in the first timeline). That being said, this was fun overall. The characters were pretty entertaining as well as seeing their hidden motivations play out. I liked the supernatural elements as well. The only main critique is the writing style just didn’t pack the punch I wanted it to. It was good, definitely. But I think it just lacked a certain lyricism that draws me in and keeps me turning the pages. Overall, Gorgeous Gruesome Faces is a solid 4/5 for me.
