Beginning was intriguing. Middle was a fight to keep reading. Meh but I want to read the next book to see what happens.

This was a re-read for me so that I can read the next in the series. I did enjoy it but I feel like the pacing is really off - the final third of the book is really where it gets going.

This is a candy read, which I do enjoy, but some problematic relationship dynamics took me out of the story - specifically the fact that it was unclear if those dynamics were written with intention or not.
