4.0

Started out interesting and went in directions I did not expect. The ending was proper gruesome and horrifying. The main character could be described as flawed and horrifying herself, but I really enjoyed a female protagonist that was more like a villain than a hero. Some of her choices didn’t quite make sense, the impulsiveness not entirely earned, but I will still eagerly read the sequel to this. I enjoyed the complicated friendship between the two leads, the burgeoning LGBT romance, and I hope Ale falls in love and gets a happy ending.
