What a read! This book alternated between having me firmly in its grasp and leaving me bored 100 pages at a time. The twists are interesting and the plot compelling even if the characters aren’t as much. It’s a difficult read that I am glad to have experienced even if it wasn’t a particularly pleasant experience.
