A good quick summer read! Good little twists throughout, never sure what would happen next or in the end.

So glad I finally read this!!! It was so good and I read it in one day. I loved the structure of the book, shortest chapters ever . It was easy and complex at the same time. Very mysterious and dark but with a light tone. It was just amazing! 

I bought this from Book + Bootle in St Petersburg , bookseller told me to get it . It was already in my tbr
