A nice easy read which I got through in two days. I did guess the mystery about halfway through, but even then it wasn’t obvious enough that I felt I knew it and there were many details I could not have guessed.
I did enjoy the very real, grounded in reality depictions of trauma; it felt well-researched and I could definitely connect with some character’s experiences
Definitely worth a read and I’ll be on the sequel next, but probably won’t keep the book for a reread personally, which is why I’ve rated it a 3.5
