Awesome! I was not expecting to love this as much as I did, but I'm glad to be surprised. Nora feels like a real person, a girl who's been forged by trauma and has learned to use it in order to become a fighter. The secondary characters, Wes and Iris, are more than just cardboard pieces to further the story. The are relevant to Nora and the plot's development. They have complex backstories that are worth exploring in future books. The descriptions of Abby and the grooming of her daughter's were sad, but like with any good con, you can't help but be drawn into the story. Loved it, could not put it down!

This was fine. I had higher hopes for it and honestly I probably should've adjusted them down as I was definitely thinking of this story told to a new adult audience not a young adult audience. The main character imo is pretty unlikable and her inner monologue becomes VERY repetitive. I actually like the last 15% or so od this book way more than the beginning 85% but I do not plan to listen to the sequel.
