This was a fun read, though having the love triangle between two emotionally distant brothers was tiring and very insta-lovey. Solving the puzzles was an interesting driver in the plot. I kind of saw the plot twist from a mile away though. These chapters are so short throughout that the book moved fast. I want answers so I’ll definitely read the next book, but I’m not in a hurry. The brothers all annoyed me a little bit lol.

This was not exciting or entertaining at any point and because of this book I'm finally going to give up on reading things just because they're popular, ya'll have questionable taste. 

This read like a middle grade, not a young adult novel, but a very boring middle grade novel with terrible dialogue. It was also predicable in some parts, and then the ending was really lack luster.  

I'm giving this one out of five stars, I did not enjoy this at all. 

I listened to this for free on libbyapp.com

Wat een lekker verhaal. Het is heerlijk geschreven (en vertaald), met een continue opbouw in spanning. Op het einde nog een cliffhanger waardoor ik meteen door wil lezen.
Enige minpuntje was dat de love triangle een beetje onnodig was.
