Quick, easy read, but not necessarily a light read. Certainly not my typical type of book, but after a while, I was engrossed and intrigued with the story unfolded. Overall I enjoyed the journey and found many aspects of the story deeply relatable. Plenty of twists and turns kept me reeled in enough to breeze through this one pretty quickly.
I will say that I didn't care for how tragic the story was. I know that some people really gravitate towards these types of stories: ones of great heartbreak, devastation, loss, and death, but I found it excessive at times, even if the emotions still resonated with me. Usually if these themes are so prevalent in a story I'm reading, I want at least some cool world-building to distract me from all that. But this just boils down to personal preference. Still a well-written, if not too accessible, book that I'm now happy to say I've read, and not just so I can talk about with other people. 3.5 stars.
