The Side Hustle

The gritty urban backdrop felt very vivid and real. I wonder if the author drew from personal experience or research to create this world.

The story kept me on the edge of my seat, but some twists felt surprising in a good way while others seemed a bit abrupt. What was the intention behind the pacing of reveals?

The protagonist’s choices added so much tension, but I’m curious whether that was driven by the story or the author's exploration of ethics in crime.
