3.5
3.5 stars. I was going back and forth between 3 and 4 stars, so 3.5 it is.
The beginning was slow. Slow enough that I wasn't sure I wanted to keep reading. I did, though, which I'm glad for. The book kept me well enough entertained, but I was bored with some parts. I think what boosts my rating of it was the ending. Talk about a twist. Super interesting plot idea, and I'm overall glad I read it.
