WOAH!!!!! This story grasps your mind and won’t let go! So Many Twists!!! Also, The Ending…. well, you’ll have to read it for yourself 😉 -2 I deducted two stars because the book is written in present-tense… and (not to give away any spoilers) the ending surprise doesn’t equate to the train of thought throughout the book.

Read for the second time- I didn’t remember all the issues with the first version but the second time reading I was still on the edge of my seat. When the twists came, it was like all emotion and shock flooded to my brain as I connected the dots again! But I still had questions because I couldn’t remember the ending and I was anticipating the next book! Very good read and glad some issues were corrected!

This one was hard to get into but once I was about halfway through, I was invested. The ending was frustrating with the twist that I could not have predicted!
