MY
GOD
I had read some reviews ahead of time saying the ending to this book was shocking, and folks, they did NOT lie.
This was one of the most impressive endings to a YA book I’ve read in a while. While I did get the hints about the main plot early on, I did not expect almost any of the minor twists and turns Bracken pulled. I’m super intrigued by how this series will continue- not sure if I’ll enjoy it as much, but I’m willing to stick around and see because of how impressed I was by the end.

I would say this book is totally worth it, but don't DNF it if it seems slow. It does take awhile to have all the pieces fall into place, but it is definitely worth it.
Thank you to NetGalley for an ARC, and thank you to Libro for having the audiobook on their educator discount - when I reread the book before book 2 comes out I will cherish having the audiobook!
