There were so many moving parts that it felt utterly chaotic and I don’t think there’s any possible way I could explain this plot to someone. I didn’t mind Alice as a character and I don’t mind that she constantly does things she’s told not to do. Everyone in the world seems determined to deceive and betray her so she’s right to be paranoid about it. I felt misled by the prologue in a way that left me confused about why it exists at all and the huge twist at the end was a complete shock to me because I didn’t feel like it was foreshadowed at all.
I’m interested in picking up the second book to see how any of this can be resolved and I want to see how Alice can grow given time to settle into her new life. But I don’t know if I’d recommend this to anyone really because of some of the triggers.
