I want to love it. I really like it. Love Alaina, and think with experience her writing will get better.

Such an amazing debut book!!! I’m so proud of Alina and cannot wait for the next one!!!

1.5 is being generous. The writing is awful and the whole book just pissed me off. Such a good idea that’s been trashed with terrible writing.

meh.

This book was so good! I listened to the audiobook while I was cleaning and it kept me so distracted I didn’t realize how much I was actually getting done. The characters are great and the plot is amazing! I hope to see more by this author!

Sucked me right in from the get-go. Cool.
Blindsided by this twist. Cool.
Then it never kept blossoming or stayed fresh; just slowly decayed into bleh.
And homie serial killer started man-splaining his methods to victims ???
Plenty of 1-2D characters too. Not cool.
A more technical narrative was cool, but felt hollow through and through.
Incomplete ending too.
Dang :(

Maybe it’ll be like the Hunger Games series where the second one is better/best?
