I was hooked by this story, and I loved the multiple perspectives and time shifts. The audiobook was incredible for the different characters. It wasn't 5 stars for me but it was a fun read nonetheless. Towards the end, things started to become predictable, and the wrap-up of the story felt rushed and somewhat unsatisfying. First-person POV, multiple perspectives.
