I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and it was entirely different from what I had anticipated. From the very beginning, I sensed there would be some intriguing otherworldly explanations woven into the narrative, yet the storyline kept me guessing at every turn.

While I did struggle with many of the characters, who often came across as quite unlikable, I found that this complexity added a layer of depth—especially as the plot thickened towards the gripping conclusion. Their flawed natures became more understandable as the story unfolded.

One aspect that left me a bit disappointed was some of the explanations provided in the conclusion. I find it hard to accept the notion that adultery, while undoubtedly immoral and detestable, could be seen in the same light as heinous acts like rape, murder, child abuse, and torture. 

Overall, however, this book was a true page-turner that captivated me from start to finish. I genuinely enjoyed the experience and would recommend it.
