Downfall by Ellie Sanders
4.0
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated

This was my first read of Ellie Sanders, and she had me hooked! I loved the premise - Romeo and Juliet's set-up was an original take. Relying on well-known details from the play helped move the story along without having to explain everything. 

I consumed this story in less than two days and via audio. It was well made with clear narration. My only issue was that the timeline jumps were not clear, and I had to backtrack more than once to determine a new chapter that began with a time jump. 

This is a Duet and ends on a cliff hanger - you will want to read it and then you will want to wait to find out what happens.
