The premise was intriguing and the addition of excerpts from the fictional book within this book was an unexpected layer. But it felt a little lacking in character development, and sadly that’s because half of the book was the “book”. It was more of a nuisance at times and took away from the main story. It was worth finishing I suppose but the ending felt forced and quick.
