3.0

An interesting dark retelling. The mystery and unknown quality at the beginning kept me interested. However, the “climax” wasn’t really a climax and fell a little flat. I was interested enough to see where it would go to read the second novel (since they’re short enough and fast-paced). 

My rating scale:
1 DNF after 50%
2 Finished, but a genunie waste of time
3 Enjoy while reading, no staying power
4 Enjoyable WITH staying power, will rec
5 Resonates in your soul, life long
