Can’t figure out whether I like this book. The plot had potential and many times I did find myself mildly surprised at the revelations, but it wan’t enough to get me to turn the pages any faster.

The story was quite easy to follow but the author kind of rambled a lot at some points, and there were way too many characters/POVs for me to keep track of that I found myself merely skimming through most of the time.

Sidney’s death was rather surprising, as would the death of any main character so I liked that little plot twist. What I want to know is what happened to Marshall and Grace, and why Ellie of all people took the blame for Sidney’s death. Overall, could be better if all these questions were answered by the end of the book.
