4.5

Enjoyed this much more than I thought when I started! The narration was… definitely my least favorite part. Had to put it on 1.75x speed to get through it and it was still just off. Very stilted, almost monotoned reading experience… 

Besides that, I enjoyed the overall plot and characters. Id say this is a more plot focused book than character based, at least compared to my other recent reads. Pretty good mystery element and I did appreciate the alternating pov’s though Im not sure it was 100% needed…

Definitely going to read the next book, and am excited for it to come out soon!! 2 things I hope for the next book is: 1. Better narration for the audio 🤷‍♀️ 2. More character external dialogue and development!!
