Amazing! One of the best I've ever read in the genre. Engaged me instantly. The third part in particular was so full of twist and turns I had to finish it on the day I started. One part nearly lost me, when it seemed Mia had been stupid enough to let Jess steal her notes for Spiderkiller's class. I felt disappointed and it felt out of character... until I learned the truth! That she was the one to trick them! My faith was restored.

Overall Thoughts:
⁕ The split narration is incredibly confusing for the first 30-40 pages, and even once I figured out what was going on I felt the pacing of one “perspective” was slower than the other until about page 100. After that it was totally gripping.
⁕ The snarky/sadistic comments of the narrator(s?) and the use footnotes to provide unnecessary but detailed world-building were sometimes fun, sometimes really distracting. I’m still torn on these elements.
⁕ The story is far more driven by the plot and overall suspense than character development and nuance.
