I still don’t know how I truly think about this and I think that’s the point.

I hated the main character so so much and thats the point. Kuang did such a good job writing this that it makes you hate the main character because you need to. She’s not a good person at all.

I listened to this on audio. I didn’t own it and wanted something to listen to so I decided to pick it up finally. It was definitely gripping as you see Juniper start to spiral.

It was very good though.
