This book…I don’t know how to express how I feel about it. The first half of the book I didn’t really know what was going on at all. The next quarter I thought I had it all figured out, and felt very strongly about the characters involved. The last quarter though….just wow. It is so heartbreaking, and tragic, to finally uncover all the layers to the book and fully see the truth. I’d say if anybody is struggling to get through, to just push through, because the ending is truly worth it.

I went into this book mostly blind and I recommend you do the same. It is a bit confusing at times but it all makes sense in the end and it is heartbreaking when the truth comes to light.

Wow this was a WILD ride. I’m not sure if I’ll ever read another book like this. I wish I could experience it again for the first time.
