Ate this up in a single night, immediately after buying it. And I really, really enjoyed it. The plot was excellent, kept me invested and guessing the entire time. I had come up with a different ending in my head which I preferred to the actual one, which is often the case with me and mystery media. 

My only issue in this book were the characters. They ranged from plain and bland and predictable to insufferable or annoying to completely vile. It wasn't a dealbreaker for me, but the characters were definitely my least favourite part. Overall, I'm looking forward to both the TV show and the two other books in the series.
