I wanted to love this book. I was really looking forward to reading it but it fell flat. It had so much potential but there were so many plot holes that it just left me confused on how certain things came to be. There was no clear indicator (at least in the audio book) on what was the past and present because it just flashed back and forth without warning within minutes, leaving me consistently saying “huh?!” and rewinding to try to figure out what was happening.
