5.0

The writing style was a little difficult for me (long sentences with lots of metaphors and descriptive words, vocabulary and references that I had to look up). But the characters were interesting and the plot was so compelling and well fleshed out that I felt the book still deserved 5 stars. 

I had an inkling early on that Belbalm was evil and would be the big twist at the end of the book but I didn’t come close to predicting the truth.
