I loved the overall story but I don’t think this book needed to be over 800 pages. It took a while for the book to really get going and when it did it was very slow paced with some scenes dragging on a little longer than I needed. 

However, I really loved the character development in this book and the ending really had me on the edge of my seat. I’m normally not into slow-paced books so this was a wild card for me but that ending made it all worth it.
