This book was a wild ride. It took about halfway for me to be fully invested and then 8 hours to finish the book after that. So a slow build but then a very fast end. It's hard to review this one without giving away the ending.

So much happens, I almost wish it was two books or maybe a book and a novella… still enjoyed it a lot. But definitely felt the 6 month release gap. Still really enjoyed it though!
