This is a great book to get you out of a reading slump. It’s accessible, fun, and the plot is intriguing—on the surface. If you’re not in need of a reading slump bump, however, I would avoid. 

The characters are thin, and everyone outside of the two main characters are essentially interchangeable. The mystery is intriguing at first but it doesn’t really lead to much—and what does happen is so rushed and unearned. That’s not to say I didn’t have a good time. I read the whole thing in one sitting. But ultimately, like most binge meals, it was fun while it lasted but ultimately unsatisfying.
