I throughly enjoyed the writing of this book, I often found it hard to put down but the ending fell short. I would def still recommend but it is unlikely that I will read again

It was a good book! A big reason i only gave it 3 stars is because I listened to the audiobook and it was one of the rare books that are difficult to pay attention to when listening. I had to keep rewinding to catch something I missed. That being said i thought the narrator of the audiobook did a fantastic job, especially with the way she altered her voice and accents so well for each character.
