Initially it was hard to follow due to the switching POV's but once you figured out who was who and that they're all a bit of unreliable narrators it's not so bad. It was hard to put down because I needed to know what happened next and who was telling the truth, if anyone. There were moments that were hard to read but they weren't gratuitous and do a good job of building the world and ties everything together in the end.
