Stars: ✦✦.5
So as usual, I'll tell 2.5 things I liked about the book and 2.5 thing I didn't like.

So what did I think?

+/- 0.5 | The idea is great. That and the cover was definitely what drew me into it. It is quite a typical thriller regarding to what happens, but since the setting is completely new to the main character, it brought a new layer of mystery

+1 | Entertainment value. It started off really well and I did read it to the end, meaning I definitely wanted to know what happens - which is a great sign for me with thrillers and books in general

+/- 0.5 | I enjoyed the main character, but a lot of characters were introduced in a short span which made me confused heading to the end


-1  |  Like I mentioned in a previous point it started well, but I felt the pace decline

+/-0.5  | The writing I enjoyed, but the ending wasn't as shocking as I'd hoped


Read on lovelies,
S
