This has to be my favorite book this year and one of my favorites of all time!! It took me a second to get used to the narration style but once I did I thoroughly enjoyed it, it reminded me a little of Lemony Snicket. I haven't found myself liking and rooting for every single character in a book like I did with this one in a while. The plot was great, the writing style was amazing, and I loved the way the author kept giving us pieces of the puzzle in every chapter. I highly recommend it!
