This novel started out strong. And it continued strong too! I really enjoyed the first 2/3-ish of the story and was eager to see where it was headed, how the two narratives would meet. Unfortunately, the end of the book seemed to drag on slowly. Characters and side-plots were introduced for seemingly little reason. The conclusion was unsatisfying and anti-climactic.
The timeline didn’t quite work for me either. I wish the events of 2016 had taken place in a year not yet known to readers.
Overall, this was fun though! It’s light and easy to read (but it’s also light on substance, at times). I enjoyed both viewpoints, though my opinion on whose chapters I looked forward to more did flip about half-way through.
