 I started this book yesterday and oh man, I should have put it down after I saw the first couple of chapters labeled like this: Chapter 1: Tuesday, March 13, 2018. The next chapter, Chapter 2: March 20, 2018. Then the next chapter is, Chapter 3. Present. Wednesday March 14, 2018. With the following chapters being for March 15th, March 17, March 18, and AGAIN.... Present, March 21st. WTF? Just the way the chapters are, the bizarre way the book goes back in forth in time, made me realize I should have put it down. The writing is also not good and lots of other improbable things (even for the genre). Also lots of very unexpected sex with minors that is not mentioned Anywhere on the blurb or jacket. Would not have picked up on that alone. At this point I'm skimming to the end out of curiosity to see where this books is actually going so technically I'm finishing it, I guess? So there's that?
