I was confused for a good portion of the book but just went with it
Plot twist at the end was cool
More mature themed than what I usually read but once getting into it, it got really good 
Great make-you-think books

An enjoyable read. I wasn't surprised by any of the reveals, and I wasn't blown away by anything, but I enjoyed being along for the ride! It was an interesting premise, and an interesting setting.
