The book has a lot of potential. I enjoy the premise of the story but the execution isn’t really there.
One of the biggest things for me was the POV swapping, it would swap in the same paragraph. No warning. It was too jarring.
This story tells more than it shows, and most of the time I don’t have an issue with that, but I need the characters to have me enthralled and while I enjoyed Kate, it wasn’t enough.
There’s too many characters, too quickly, as well.
Again, the premise is great, has loads of potential. The storyline just needs work.
