3.5

This book started out really strong and the narration was excellent.  The last third of the book struggled a bit.  There were parts that felt unrealistic and parts that just felt unnecessary to the story.  The potential to be a really powerful read was there… it just wasn’t quite the 5 star stunner I expected.
