This was both very compelling and also confusing in places. Had trouble keeping characters/timelines/aliases straight but still couldn't put it down once I got about halfway in.

The author's writing is absolutely gorgeous and the story is woven together so thoughtfully. I was left with a few plot questions at the end, but overall a phenomenal read.
