Andrew is pretty terrifying and I think shrugging some of his behavior off as mental illness is pretty bad. 

Otherwise the plot is pretty interesting and I like the drama.

The end Kingdom Hearts on the beach ending I could have done without. It seemed pretty unnecessary. Otherwise a fun somewhat stressful read.
