It’s a chunker and it took me weeks to work my way through, but I loved every step of the way along the plot. Great writing and great characters, and I loved the switching between multiple POVs. Also really liked the bits at the start of the chapters giving little insights into what was being talked about online or in the media. The story end was satisfying to me and could have easily been a standalone, but apparently there is a sequel which I will for sure be reading.

I found the beginning of this book excellent and really compelling. In the middle, I was deeply upset because there are no trigger warnings and I ended up hearing (audiobook version) a very graphic rape scene before I was able to turn off the audio. And the end of the book went on too long. Definitely not Chucks best work. But i still really liked the beginning…amandaklap's review against another edition
