This premise was so unique and carried out brilliantly by the author. Her witty style of writing was so fun, despite the subject matter being quite gory at times. I absolutely loved watching Lore’s character development, even if I didn’t like her at times. Miles’ subplot has to be my favorite part of the book though. This book did twists really well and had me hooked from the start. Such a good read!
