I don’t quite know how to feel about this book. The story was interesting and engaging enough to keep me reading. I especially liked the first half. But I didn’t quite like the characters or the romance aspect of it, despite having picked up this book because I thought it was a romance. And I think that there was a lot of plot and twists but not enough dissection thru the characters’ POVs or conversations to kind process events with and for the reader. Which ultimately made me feel like the protagonists weren’t connecting or engaging with the story themselves, just going thru the motions and setting up for the next big reveal and twist.
I think it’s worth a read overall though. Definitely read thru the trigger warnings first tho.
