J'ai trouvé 0 défauts pour cette histoire, les seules points négatifs que j'ai pu lui trouver et surtout des problèmes avec la ME et la traduction. 
Je pense que le point fort de ce livre sont les personnages principaux qui sont incroyables et bien développés. L'histoire finit sur un cliffhanger vraiment cool et qui promet un bonne suite !

Very fun, not too serious! Reads like Wattpad, very quick and engaging to get through with a high-action plot. What let it down was the complete lack of world-building. I could not picture that bridge (yes, what the book is named after) for love nor money! 

Don't waste your time on the sequel though, it's a mess.

Originally I was only going to give this book 4.5 stars because I found myself very confused in the first 30% or so with the descriptions of the bridge. I couldn’t comprehend how it worked at all. But by 50% that no longer mattered at all. Eventually I understood the bridge enough to not care, but I completely forgot I had trouble at all because everything else going on was so much more important. For 50% onwards I could not put it down. I read the entire second half in one sitting. The characters are always in some kind of danger, it’s constantly tense, I’m feeling a roller coaster of emotions. It has been so incredibly long since a book has made me so passionate that I wanted to peg it across the room almost constantly. And in a good way. I’m crying, screaming, throwing up constantly. This book took years off my life. I don’t think I’ll ever stop feeling anxious. Absolutely amazing. 100% recommend to ANYONE. Please read this I cannot stress this enough.

There is a slight miscommunication trope in this so if you hate that be wary, but don’t write it off! It is amazingly fleshed out and actually makes so much sense with the plot and added a lot to the story.
