I would say I was mildly enjoying this book for almost all of it until the end. The end honestly knocked this up from a 3 star to a 4. I felt the same way about the first book. It reads like a mystery where you are slogging through them running around like chickens with their heads cut off, chasing dead end leads for the entire book until it finally all comes to a head with a reveal and near death experience in the end. Obviously it’s more detailed than that. Sarah J Mass definitely comes up with twists that I cannot for the life of me guess even a page before. I have never been so shook by and ending; I’ve seriously never read anything like it. Hang in there an make it to the end, it’s worth it! P.s. I hate the name Bryce.
