3.13 AVERAGE


I wasn't expecting to finish this so fast but it's a short read and very fast-paced so it was easy to get through. I'm a fast reader as is but this felt like I skimmed it considering how quickly events in the book took place, I don't know that I loved reading it but I liked the concept and thought it was relatively interesting as a whole. I'm considering the sequel but I don't know if I'll read it just yet.

The cover is worth 5 stars, the idea is also worth 5 stars but its not the best written book and didnt keep me as hooked as other books.

I liked the cult. I don’t want to join a cult. I won’t. Probably.

Quite good. A very quick read, but some of the dialogue jarred, but nevertheless a good read

Very clever writing but a very abrupt ending (great cliffhanger though)!
