Additionally, I started out not caring for Gideon – I feel like the author simple gave me no reason to like her other than witty sarcasm (which I love, but doesn’t make for a compelling character on its own). Eventually, I was too drawn into the plot/mystery of the book to put it down just because I disliked the main character.
Overall, I’m glad I finished the book and have even started the second one, but I think the hype around this book is more than it deserves.
