i also wasn't a huge fan of the writing style as well. i think this book read more like middle grade rather than young adult, and it was missing that extra little finesse. however, i'll cut the author some slack since this is a debut novel - so props to her!!

1. The concept
2. The plot twists
3. The pacing
4. The way the author ripped you apart within the first 100 pages
5. The fact I actually was invested in the story
What I didn’t understand/ didn’t like:
1. The fact that she really wasn’t that “bad” until the very end of the book.
2. That the only thing that makes people monsters is the ability to steal time
3. The family powers, and how they are useful in anyway or monster like.
4. The gigantic descriptions of settings. That’s just a huge pet peeve of mine.
