The concept was very intriguing albeit dark and the first half of the book shone. I quite liked the story being told from the interview room and I actually liked Maya’s character. The books starts to flag half way and I wasn’t a fan of the end twist. It almost wasn’t big enough for the themes of the book. Kept me on my toes in the first half but started to lose me in the second.

I really like dark. And this book did not disappoint. I read it in 2 days. I was obsessed. I wasn't really feeling the ending, but I see why it made sense to do it that way.

But, unlike other books, I was dreaming of this book and what happened. This book stuck with me, and I'm really liking the story line, regardless of its darkness; I embrace the darkness. And I can't wait to read the rest of the series.

Very well written book and sad/creepy storyline. For some reason I didn’t find it as thought provoking as I was hoping it would be, which was slightly disappointing but that was probably just an expectations thing.

Overall a good book, but didn’t change anything about my worldview or anything
