Oh man.  This was dark. That being said, I was beyond engaged the entire time. The writing was beautiful and the storytelling was done incredibly well.  I definitely felt an emotional connection to our characters. 

With multiple POV’s and first hand accounts, this book will take you for a ride- you won’t be able to predict what comes next.  There were a number of times I had to pause because it got dark, disturbing, and descriptive, but that final reveal?  Smh.  How 😩

I really enjoyed this!
