I was worried that this one was going to be slow when reading act 1, but the pace picked up toward the end of the first act and kept escalating. What consisted of mostly bickering quickly turned to life ruining tragedy and I don't know how to feel. Definitely interested in watching the actual play, but I don't know if I can read any more of The Cycle Series.

I read this in anticipation of the Netflix adaptation. This was hard for me to get through. I’m curious about what direction the movie will take
