This book has been recommended to me by a few people, but I wasn't overly impressed. Right after finishing, I thought it might even be a 5-star read (a rollercoaster to get there, but still), yet after sitting with it for a few days, I decided on a lower rating. I only really felt invested in the last five or so chapters, even though Scarlett was insufferable through much of it. This type of FMC is usually one I love, but I found myself annoyed by Scarlett for most of the book, especially towards the end.
The twists in the final chapters did redeem the story a bit, and I can see myself continuing the series eventually. I can see where Melissa K. Roehrich might've taken some inspiration from other beloved series, but that doesn't bother me too much. If anything, that's part of why I was excited to start this series.
That being said, the writing itself was good. I did enjoy certain characters and moments, but my overall feelings are pretty mixed.
