This was an interesting premise with far too long a story for the lack of depth and detail given.
I hate to admit it, but I was bored for at least half of this book. I truly did not care what happened to these characters or the school because I was never given a reason to. By the time one thing is being explored, another is quickly being introduced and you never really get any closure on what you were reading moments before.
Additionally, the ending for each character was way too predictable. The one and only shocking moment, if you can call it that, was learning who X was, and even that wasn’t anything too unpredictable.
All that being said, I appreciate this book for what it is. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it but I also wouldn’t tell someone they should avoid it.
