This book had a great premise and a lot of potential but made a lot of missteps that kept it from being truly engaging. I never felt truly connected to the fmc, so I was never really rooting for her. The plot and pacing were very uneven, and though I don't mind being able to guess a twist, this one was so completely obvious from the beginning that it was almost a disappointment to be right. I think with a few different choices in the writing and editing I would have really enjoyed it, but it was really a huge disappointment to me.
