The first part (Brienne’s part) moved a little slow for me. Part 2 (Niall’s part) is when the pace started to pick up and it got interesting - about 40% into the book. This book has a good twist although I do feel like it was revealed a bit too early and I feel like some of the book was a bit predictable, especially if you are a seasoned thriller reader. Overall, I enjoyed this book and was excited to continue reading / finishing once I got to the 40% mark. Fun and easy read!
All of the horrible things she said and did, it was because she was hurting, and hurt people hurt people.
