I loved this from the first chapter. The first portion pulled me in, and while it did take me a while to read, that had no bearing on the story itself. Life just got in the way a bit. Luckily, you have more than enough time to add this to your TBR, which you will want to do, friends.
(Small shoutout to the publisher also, because this is the second book from this house that I have read and really enjoyed -- looking at you Moriah Chavis <3)
My CAWPILE Rating: 63/70

Writing Style: (8/10) -- I personally struggle sometimes with 1st person, but Ellen does it well.
