This is the first SK book I’ve read. I did enjoy the plot and character development. I was hooked from the start and kept reading as I wanted to see how the story would unfold! 

There is the use of derogatory language (and some TW themes) throughout which I was surprised to see (unsure if this is common in SK books??) so including as a warning to anyone who is wanting to read this book.
