This book was very fast paced, which I like, but I feel like the narrative could have really benefited from taking a breather in some spots. The ending was somewhat anti-climactic as well. There is a strong plot and characters, but this book doesn’t have much else going for it. Overall enjoyable though.
Graphic: Child death and Rape
Moderate: Miscarriage
