This book was so tense! I knew that the big reveal would be left for the very end, but I just couldn’t relax. I was simultaneously scared and excited to keep on reading.
I understand why the need for multiple POVs, especially if you have characters in different locations, but I just couldn’t warm up to some of them. The fact that I didn’t quite like a few of the characters kept me from reading more at times. I also missed Violet terribly. I hope the next book focuses more on her again.
Some of the revelations really caught me by surprise! I’m honestly clueless as to how this story is going further developed, but I’ll gladly stick around to find out.
