A fantastic read. I loved the alternating character POVs in this book. It kept me engaged and made it hard to set this book down. 

My only complaint is that the monologue of the bad character at the end is super long and a little corny. Just kinda plays into the “big bad villain gives a long speech” trope. So I found myself skimming a bit there. 

That wasn’t too bad, though. Overall, I loved this book.
