There was a theme to this book that was hard to get past. I may have enjoyed it without that theme.

The beginning is pretty slow, the middle is just right, and the end moves way too fast. I had honestly forgot this was classified as a thriller until the climactic sequence was something straight out of a horror movie. The last chapter felt very "wrapped up in a bow/let's get this over with" which was a little disappointing.

I still liked it though! It made me want to get back into Latin (if only briefly). I guessed a couple of the twists, but a couple did surprise me! Kinda wish they hadn't copped out with the incest though *shrug emoji*
