It’s not the best writing but the story is engaging enough that I read this and the next one in two short sittings. It reads like Criminal Minds fan fic and that’s perfectly fine.

Did not finish book. Stopped at 12%.
It just wasn’t going anywhere and I wasn’t into any of the main characters.

I’m really sorry but I hate this book so much! It’s very much written from a place of white male privilege and it’s also poorly written. I had to read it for a work training coming up this week and I’m so disappointed that this was the chosen book for the course.
