4.0

I was a little hesitant to pick this book up. After many bad reviews from people I was scared I wouldn't like this book as much as I initially thought. Luckily, I found myself really enjoying this book. The plot was unique, the characters each a spectacle, and how Jennifer Lynn Barns writes a mystery kept me invested. I often found myself losing track of time while reading. The chapters are short and end on cliffhangers so it never feels like scenes are rushed to a conclusion to keep chapters short.  The only reason I gave this book a 4 and not a 5-star rating was that the first few chapters started off slow but as soon as the game started the book took off running!
