As much as I love reading Emily McIntire's books, this one is so far not my favourite. I love the way that McIntire reveals more backstory about her characters as the story continues, and there was a dark mystery to this one with lots of plot twists. However, the main characters were kind if unbearable at times. Their whole personalities just felt like completely two dimensional with their only internal monologue being about murder and sex. I did love the references to the Lion King though, that was very well done and for the most part I understood them.
