This book was so interesting! Feels like one of those books that makes a lot more sense the second time you read it, so I'll definitely do a re-read so I can pick up on all the things I didnt understand the first time. One of the best parts of this book is that every single sentence was purposeful, no filler at all. It made me read in a really active way, and connect and absorb every single line. I loved how everything seemed to click into place as the story went on.
