The audiobook was enjoyable, with a full cast for each character. If you don’t like books with multiple POVs, then you won’t enjoy this one. Everything came together in the end but for a long time, this book just felt so messy. Everyone had so much drama that all I wanted was a normal interaction for a change. It was definitely tense but sometimes seemed like it was trying to hard to be trendy while also mysterious. Not 100% sure about how I feel about it.

Totally didn't see the end coming, and it managed to be layered surprises past the initial one. I liked the multiple POVs despite myself; author really managed to make each charcter have their own voice and make sense. Pretty suspenseful, and I was interested for the most part. Occasionally fell off, particularly Johnno in the first 2/3 but otherwise largely good.
