I didn't realize it was third in a series until after I started reading but it was easy to pick up. The story twists and turns on unexpected ways.

I really enjoyed this book.  I loved the multi-POV, and mixing 3rd person with 1st person narration… I am surprised I liked that, actually.  So many surprises, and Lily was my favorite character.  I found out after I started reading that this book is actually the third in a series, but while it would’ve been nice and probably better to have read the other books first, I’m happy to say that it wasn’t necessary.
