Into the Drowning Deep by Mira Grant
5.0

I loved that I started this book feeling unsettled, and ended up still very unsettled, but for different reasons. The author does a great job of keeping the tension through the book and really challenging your perspective of the subject. The cast of characters is somewhat large, but the ones really really get to know are fleshed out well and our understanding of them really makes a difference as the story progresses. I was happy that, for the most part, nothing really felt predictable, especially not the ending.

I admit too that I read the prequel novella before starting this one and while it isn't really spoiler-filled, I do feel it influenced how I went into starting this one. I highly recommend reading this first, but it won't ruin the experience either.
