Not sure what the hype is with CC. πŸ˜…

Firstly this book should've been edited SO HARD, it's not even funny. The way I was confused for the first 20% is just unacceptable. I also felt like nothing happened before page 550, which is insane, because the entire book was like 770? pages or something. 

A lot of things didn't make sense to me, like e.g. Hunt couldn't fly and plunged himself to "death" but 15 minutes later he was okay and was flying Bryce home. πŸ’€ Idk, make it make sense. There were so many things like that. 

Murder mystery wasn't murder mystery-ing. πŸ˜•I was bored, honestly. I think I realized half-way through the book that it was supposed to be mystery x fantasy genre wise. The conclusion imho was a little pathetic... like she almost NEEDED to wrap it up quickly to make room for the actual action she wanted to have after the murder mystery. The actual action was great honestly, not sure why she didn't incorporate it before page 550. 🀷

The vacuum scene was great. 10/10 best scenes of the book. πŸ‘πŸ˜‚
