What I loved
The characters were the absolute standout here.  That's not to say other parts weren't great, but the characters were brilliantly written.  I needed Virgil and Nathan to be OK.  Like edge of my seat, biting my nails, hoping that everything would be OK.  

This was an incredible novel, and I'll definitely be checking out every other book this author ever puts out.
