4.5
The narrator was fantastic in expressing all the subtleties and giving more depth to the characters.
I strongly dislike the brief scene of coerced sex of one of the characters, as she was only 15 years old. I felt like it was completely unnecessary and didn't add to the overall plot and story at all.
Overall, fantastic book, love the timeline jumping with the different character's point of views and such. It was handled very well by the author!!

The mystery itself had me hooked and I only understood it when the story wanted to.
It blends multiple character perspectives really well and overall is well paced.
The characters themselves feel human, especially those that make mistakes and grow from it.

I also wasn't a fan of how the plot developed, I won't explain how as I would have to spoil things that happen late in the book. But overall I was quite disappointed. Loved idea of it from the description before I read it but the execution just wasn't for me I suppose.
