If you’re looking for a thriller that is fast paced from start to finish this isn’t for you. However, I enjoyed the plot of this book, which is certainly unique, and the exploration of human morality. It’s worth a read but there’s better thrillers out there.

3.5 stars. Great plot and suspenseful but no real plot twist and was kind of predictable. 3.5 stars they could have went over the edge with this one but fell short. This first part had me indulged with it's fast pace and suspense, but the second part kind of sizzled everything.

I really didn’t like this book. the writing was not my favorite, the characters felt illegitimate, and the ending/reveal was cheap and obvious in my opinion. after reading the back i was so incredibly excited to read and love this but it just felt like a first draft :(
