I am not a theater kid. I did not relate to a single character in this story. I figured out the main mystery very quickly. And I’m still rating this book 4.25 stars. Even though I, a logic oriented engineer who usually finds dramas tiring, am not the target audience of this story I found myself unable to put it down. The writing is beautiful, and though the grand reveal is predictable to the reader I enjoyed following the main character’s naivety to the very end.
