This story was really wild! There were lots of twists and turns. I didn’t expect to like it as much as I did. I knocked it down from five stars, because the sci-fi element being introduced so last minute kind of threw me for a loop. I didn’t dislike it I just didn’t expect it because we were already about 300 pages in, and there weren’t science-fiction elements before that.
