I loved this book!!! I finished this one and immediately ordered the next two in the series.
There is a huge cast of characters, which I was initially nervous about, but this author does such a great job of making each character complex/unique and includes little details about the character in every scene that I didn’t find it difficult to keep track at all.
The pacing in general and timing of suspenseful events was extremely well done — I didn’t want to put the book down and would’ve read it in one sitting if I didn’t absolutely have to do other things in my life.
I’m quite invested in the outcome at this point and am very excited to read the next installments!
