This book kept me up late for a few nights in a row because I didn't want to set it down. I got to a certain point and it felt like Gyre was leaving the cave but the map that's at the beginning had only just begun to be explored so I knew she was going back in. 

I liked how we didn't find out what a tunneler was until it made sense for them to explain it in the story. 

I'm not sure how I feel about the ending of the book!
