I was expecting more from this book after the House in the Cerulean Sea. It had some of the sweet elements I was expecting - Rambo and Nurse Ratched were the true stars - and a nice ending, but I wasn't invested in the story. And the bizarre sexual themes that were thrown in randomly were off-putting for me. It felt like they were thrown in to be "interesting".
