4.0

The first half of the book was slower and we were just spending time with the characters building up to the big twists. The second half was a page turner as things were changing so often. I liked some of the twists but they were a bit hard to believe at times. I liked the first book slightly better just because of the puzzles and twists. This one had a bigger emphasis on the love triangle which I’m not a huge fan of. I did enjoy getting to know the characters better and learning more about them. I am excited to read the final book and see how it all comes together.
