This book felt like reading the screenplay of a movie or TV show, in the best possible way. I could see the entire thing unfolding in my head as I read, and the writing had me hooked from the first page. And then the ending happened, and I wanted to throw the book across the room. Overall this was a really fun, fast-paced read but I really wasn't a fan of the last chapter and the epilogue. I get the idea of leaving things open to interpretation, but a tiny inkling of where things ended up might have been nice.
