I enjoyed this book a lot. It was one of those I kept thinking about and towards the end I couldn’t stop reading. I think the writing was not amazing but it was tolerable, as someone who is pretty picky about that stuff. The plot was slightly all over the place and it might have overdone the plot twists a bit. I liked the concept and the creativity of the different scenes as well as the complexity of the plot.

This was… okay. I had heard so much about it, however, maybe I’m a little grown out of the genre. Donatella felt super annoying and idek, just dense.

until the end i suppose🤦‍♀️.

probably not going to finish the series, it wasnt suspenseful enough to keep me enthralled. ALSO i listened to the audiobook and i HATED the reader. She made it almost unbearable.
