2.0

I’m very conflicted on how to feel about this. 

Overall I get what the author was trying to say and do with this but it just didn’t go over well for me. The ending was great but what it took to get there is questionable at best. 

It kept me intrigued and wanting to make it to end so I could figure out what was going on but I genuinely almost did write it off as a dnf a few times because it was pissing me off.

Very very tense. The book really starts to come together near the end, so don’t give up when things are kinda boring in the beginning! Worth it! I loved this!
