I really enjoyed this book, with all the character development arcs and the twists and turns. I really enjoyed reading the annotations by the author as the story progresses, it really made my reading experience much better. I liked learning about why the author decided to put a certain scene in the book, or why a character decided to do a certain thing. Although, sometimes I accidentally spoil myself by glancing at the 'spoilers' section, but most of the time, it helped me to understand the characters more. There were parts where I was uncertain about what was happening, but in the annotations, the author would explain why something was happening and if the characters were also confused. In the start, I was not very interested because I was not hooked into the story, which was what the author mentioned he was worried about, however, I was really hooked in after. Reading this book took me so long because I was in a reading slump and could not find time to read, as I had exams and a lot of homework, but I am glad that I am finally finished! Really looking forward to the sequel as the author mentioned it a couple of times in the annotations :)
