This was a nice read! The story was intriguing and the characters were compelling!
I loved the inclusion of mental health issues (and not just as a plot device) and I haven’t seen this type of story a ton, which was refreshing! I really liked the dialogue between the MC and Quint, and I thought their dynamic was great.
That being said, I wanted a bit more from this book. The ending was a bit too happy to be my cup of tea, and I found the story predictable at times. I also found some things were a bit over explained and others were a bit under explained.
All in all, the book was enjoyable, but I just felt it had more potential.
