I want to flip to the beginning and reread it again.

It was fine. I was bored at parts, but there were some redeeming qualities like the Gods. I’ll probably continue, but I wouldn’t put this as a must buy. I think the concept was there , and I loved the diversity….but I didn’t care as much as I would’ve liked to.

This was the best thriller I think I’ve ever read. I loved the mixed media format, the dialogue was funny, and the story flowed. The twists! The turns!!

Did not finish book. Stopped at 211%.
DNF at Chapter 14. I read the last two chapters to see how it ends…and I still don’t care. These characters are un likable.

Went back and forth between audiobook and ebook. 
I feel I would’ve liked this story more if told be VE Schwab or T. Kingfisher. 
Ava Reid has beautiful prose, and I adored that in A Study if Drowning, but I didn’t need it here. It just made the book drag on longer than it had to.

Did not finish book. Stopped at 20%.
DNF at 20%. I skipped ahead a bit to read, and I just wasn’t interested. I may have liked this better when I was younger!

I really loved this. It reminded me of the Near Witch in the way of writing and storytelling. I will definitely be checking out more T. Kingfisher.

Recycled storylines with banter that just got worse. Sigh. Almost DNFd but was so close that I just finished. 
I like Lorian but my GOD could MC stop whining all the time? I also like the best friend. A…something. I’ll be honest my eyes glazed over. Anyways.
