A rollercoaster for sure. There were multiple times I swore I had it all figured out. And I guess in a way I did, but not fully. There are so many ups and downs with the characters, you love them and think they’re good and then the next you hate them and think they’re the bad guy.
Not a challenging read, but you do have to get used to how Ted speaks. Once you do though, it’s a very fast read.
Really dark, but so good and I can tell it was well researched.
