I’m not typically a fan of slow-burn type of stories, but this one just kept pulling me in. The suspense was palpable as it went on. I like how Reid uses quotation marks the way he does in the story, not to spoil anything. It was annoying at first, and could be at times, but towards the end you began to understand why. The ending is definitely worth getting to to understand a lot of the character development over the chapters before, and provides a twist you may or may not have seen coming.
