So. I was really enjoying this. I liked the mystery, I liked the artwork, I loved Teddy, the precocious little kid with a wild imagination. But I hated every single twist that happened in the last 100 pages of the book. Half of them undid the characterisation and plot of the first half of the book and the other half were just so intensely stupid. The ending entirely rubbed me the wrong way and left a sour taste in my mouth. I won't be picking up another Jason Rekulak book any time soon.
