I kept trying to guess what is going to happen, which is a good sign. I listen to audiobooks while crafting or cleaning, and often the plots don't really get me that interested, but this one got me good.
There were some parts that felt like maybe the authors made a mistake, but with an audiobook it's hard to tell cause I can't go back to double check. The ending was a bit abrupt and felt like they couldn't actually quite figure out how to end the story so they made the villain crumble in an uncharacteristic way, while trying to shoehorn in the reasoning behind it. The main character stayed true to herself, however. She was flawed, but portrayed in a way that made me root for her.
The study of morale was interesting, but felt a bit stretched in parts. The question of whether the punishment should always fit the crime was made a sort of a central point, but felt really vague in context of the story, like it was an idea that the authors wanted to hang onto despite the story itself steering away from it.
I really enjoyed the alternating POVs and their separate readers, it made it easier for me to keep track of what's happening, and I think the readers did a great job.
