I loved The Bell Chime so I was excited to read more from this author but this didn’t work for me. There’s a good story somewhere in here but it wasn’t executed in a way that I could get myself into.

2.5 stars. The book had so much potential. But it kept changing directions so many times it got restless, and then I did not know what to expect but in a bad way
