I loved this book. I firmly believe Nisha can do no wrong!! This was a fun NA debut for her.
While the plot was a little predictable, I still enjoyed how it unfolded. The parallels between the plot and the subplot really emphasized some of the drama and tension which was interesting.
I'm still feeling mixed on this and need to interrogate those feelings but I *think* I might have enjoyed it more if the sex was closed door. It just took me out of the story a bit. But those scenes were important so I wouldn't want them to go away entirely.
Overall, a very enjoyable, emotional, and poignant read with great secondary characters, a memorable setting, and a lot of intrigue!
Thank you to Skyscape and NetGalley for the e-ARC
