I did enjoy the book and I plan to continue the series, but there are a few things that keep it from being a favorite or 5 star read. There are some issues with the prose and places where it felt quite repetitive. For example, he often uses the same descriptors over and over. Like his brother has thick lips and Cat has crooked teeth. Pacing was a bit off as well and I’m generally not a fan of the narrative set up in the series. The pay off is far too down the line for me to enjoy it and it will always make the book feel like part of a whole rather than something that could stand on its own. It does create a feeling of journey rather than destination, but I prefer books in series to feel more complete in their arcs than this one likely ever will.
