All plot, no character. Didn't like it. Skimmed to the end to see what happened. Wish I hadn't.

Well written, kept me hooked till the very end. Somewhat predictable

Felt long, and the story didn’t move quickly. The end was interesting enough to make it a 3 star.

Maybe closer to 4.5.

I liked this book generally, it was gripping and I found myself rooting for Maya despite not particularly liking/resonating with her character.

*** Potential spoiler ***
The last chapter/epilogue is a little too perfect/sappy, but if you like a very tidy ending it's fine. The way the second to last chapter ended would have been a solid ending on its own IMO.
