This was a roller coaster of a book- started a little slow and worked it self up until you were almost left with whiplash at the end. Spanning 8 hours and completely changing the course of every characters life. The amount of twists and revelations in this story keep you shocked for the second half of the book and on the edge of you seat. Maybe it was the audiobook but it read like a movie- super visual and with almost an open ending.
