i had really high hopes for this but the majority of the book just left me thinking…. why? 
the ending was a good wrap up, got everything it needed in, and left open for a sequel - would i read it? potentially - but it wasn’t good enough to justify reading. 
i would only recommend this book if you’re interested in a quick binge read - hardly at that. 
was not impressed but the author definitely knew how to leave a good cliffhanger and make you want to keep on.
