I'm starting to think SMG is hit or miss with me. This one seemed sub par for her.
This almost read like a screenplay, but it took really long to have much of a payoff.
The prose is direct and repetitive, and I started to like it more once I thought of it as a screenplay-turned-novel and how cool an idea that could be. I liked so much about the book in theory — characters are interesting, setting and time are really well-written, the premise is cool — but ultimately it just took too long to get anywhere and everything felt so...literal.
I’d read more by the author though, just didn’t like this completed package.

Started out really hopeful, not a lot of suspense and a lackluster ending
