It was an okay book. definitely   not boring and made me scared, which shows good storytelling. however i found the characters flat and boring and very unrealistic. especially alec, everything he did was so contradictory. like he was supposed to be this big tough soldier but the way he was written didn’t make him seem like one. also, some actions thr characters took just seemed entirely unrealistic like why wouldn’t you just stay safe in somewhere you’ve been a year? why try and follow danger? also, alec was called any name except his real name which made it quite hard to follow eg old bear, man, the soldier, the man etc.
