There is familial abuse pretty early on. So that’s a trigger warning that could’ve been nice.

It’s very clear from the start that we are meant to love and hate each of these characters.  Obviously it add to the mystery of the story. However, I would’ve liked a bit more development for the redeeming moments of specific character. Just all of a sudden, Scarlett is In love with Julian. Oooooook…?

Overall I did the like plot twists and surprises in this book.
