I really enjoyed this book! I read it in a day on the way to and from Chicago for C2E2. To be fair, I enjoy a medium paced book more than a lot of people but the emotional/psychological intrigue was enough to keep me engaged until the plot twists started to hit. And they do come one after another. Over all, very enjoyable. I was pleasantly surprised with the types of twists and though I’m not usually a fan of an open ending, this one didn’t bother me the way they normally would.
