Started and finished date - 07.06.25 to 10.06.25.
My rating - Three Stars.
This book was okay read, I didn't love it but I didn't hate either and I think people who like the girl in 6E by A.R. Torre or the khan by Saima Mir may like is book. The writing was fine and the writing was easy to follow also the ending of was fine. The atmosphere was fine but bit bland and the mystery was okay. The paced of plot was too rush for my liking and I would have like is book longer. The characters was fine but they needed flash out bit more also I think the TV show did better flash out the characters. 

Mid-tier, in my opinion, or rather, lower mid-tier. At times the writing picks up and crystalises but overall found myself breezing through it with little feeling about the plot and characters. I also know this is the first of the series, but I doubt I'm gonna be picking up the next installments.
