I liked the book overall, HOWEVER I did feel like the twists could’ve been better. It felt obvious half way through, but it still makes you want to turn the pages to the end. The characters didn’t necessarily develop to me, but there is a variety of them, and they’re all different so it keeps it interesting. It has some dark themes, but some parts of it felt underdeveloped and unnecessary. Overall, a good book, I would recommend but it isn’t amazing.
