Reading the first two chapters was terrifying, I felt overwhelmed and confused the whole time. Then, I read the last chapter and... I felt scared, sad and tense. It was hard to keep reading. The ending is okay, I think it's a perfect fit for this book to end that way.
I honestly not sure if I love it or not, but 4 stars is the right score for me. Oddly enough, I can see myself re-reading this book over and over again.
