I overall really enjoyed the book and its general vibe, however it had a few flaws that stopped it being rated higher.
The first half of the book is super slow and I nearly gave up on it; I’m glad I didn’t because the 2nd half was super captivating.
I did find the random street races off putting and out of place, and I felt as though the book could have benefitted from less of those and an extended ending.
