this book definitely has a unique story. personally, i believe it was a tad bit to hyped up by the person that recommended this. make sure you google or search for warnings before reading.

I really didn’t like this book. the writing was not my favorite, the characters felt illegitimate, and the ending/reveal was cheap and obvious in my opinion. after reading the back i was so incredibly excited to read and love this but it just felt like a first draft :(
