This book kept me on my toes for it’s entirety. It is a mystery unlike any I’ve ever encountered, and there was a very unexpected twist towards the end of the story that shook my entire understanding of how the events of the story had played out, in a good way! This twist then made me look at everything leading to that moment in a new light, and then everything started clicking into place.

The Ending wow I did not expect I loved it really but the rest of the book? Did not interest me like 80% of the book I thought was kinda boring to me and I thought I would DNF it but the chapters are really short so it was easier to get through which was really the only thing that kept me going except the huge plot twist at the ending.
