This would’ve been a five but I think the ending of the book felt a little rushed, and a little convenient in comparison to the whirlwind of plot twists we were hit with throughout the beginning 2/3 of the book. Still, this was great and I have every EVERY intention of continuing the series. Darrow’s anger and the way it manifests is honestly so addictive. I also think this book is best interacted with via the audiobook because MY. GOD. WHAT A PERFORMANCE!
