I liked the story i just couldn’t handle how dumb the MC was being in the beginning so i switch to the audio book to get around that part. I’m glad i listened to the audio book as this is a very descriptive book and - even when listening - i got a little lost in what was going on by how much description was going on. but the story itself is really good, definitely ramps up near the end, which makes sense given it’s a series (i don’t usually read series books). I grew to like the MC although I still think she’s a little slow (could be argued as stubbornness instead, i haven’t quite yet decided). 

but the plots great, story building is great and weird thing to pick up on but the names of the characters are great too. Gonna listen to the next audio book in the series soon!

Also Jennifer Ikeda is a great narrator! Her at x1.35 speed was the perfect reading pace for me!!
