Excellent story. I really enjoyed this premise. It had me interested from page one. I wanted the answers so badly I couldn’t put it down. The characters were great! The references to metal bands and songs was fun and fit the storyline and the pov of the main character. So good! I highly recommend this book. ❤️

I will be honest in saying there are some things about this book that are not going to work for people, there are somethings that didn't work for me, but for a debut novel this is fantastic. What really stands out about this novel are the main characters range of introspection and personal growth. Some of the side characters are a little less fleshed out but it's not really distracting because it's partly due to the story being told from the main characters perspective.
