not sure how to feel about it, it was a bit all over the place - it felt a incredibly rushed which meant important plot points were never developed fully. 
it felt like the author didn’t really know how the book was going to end either, as lots of things were just chucked in at the end and left me incredibly confused on what any of it actually meant, the writing was a bit slow in the beginning but picked up so that’s a plus i guess
