I did enjoy this book, I found myself looking forward to bedtime so I could read a bit more and find out what next. I also found it stayed with me after reading it. However, to enjoy the book I did have to suspend my belief as so much happened that I felt wouldn't realistically happen in real life. I'm not complaining as it still provided some great escapism.
I was shook by the ending. Don't expect a happy ever after.
