This was… a challenging read for me. I really only liked the last 150 pages or so but by the end I didn’t want it to be over. The way the author wrapped things up left so much up in the air for a possible book two and I just… ugh. For something that was so tough for me to get through I do wanna know what happens. The cause of the murders genuinely surprised me, as did a few other things, which was nice but too much of it wasn’t amazing for it to be a higher star rating.
