There’s no reason for this book to make sense, but I don’t love it any less for that. Nora Sakavic does an excellent job of drawing readers into the craziest story she could tell while making it engaging and encouraging readers to root for the characters. I adore Neil and want the best for him even though this book tells you almost nothing about him. 

Plot gets a bit wild at times and it’s all super quickly paced. However, the perspective really makes it work and gets readers into Neil’s mindset. Sure we don’t exactly learn a lot about others, but Neil’s an exceptionally well-done unreliable narrator, so of course we wouldn’t. Overall, this is a book that’s easy to binge, but definitely check content warnings for it and others in the series because they’re intense.
