Had very mixed opinions all the way through. Lack of worldbuilding at the beginning meant much of the storytelling was hard to picture and piece together. However, the end was pacey and was much easuer to process with gradual discussipns throughout. I loved the twists and turns towards the ends of the book, ones I was expecting and those which I wasnt expecting.
