A book I couldn’t put away because I knew I’d not be able to rest until it was finished. I cried, I was invested and I hope there’ll be a sequel because I need to know what happens to Viv, Chumana, and the gang next

This book is strange and fucked up and made me hold my breath throughout. I read it in less than 24 hours and couldn’t put it away and every free minute I caught myself reading another chapter. It’s thrilling and sad and I should not recommend reading it but I absolutely would. It’s not for the faint of heart.
