This synopsis of this sounded like something I would absolutely enjoy, so I was eager to start reading it.

I did get sucked in right away. The idea was intriguing and the way the story was broken up between the characters kept me quickly turning the pages. I loved the misdirection and how I felt like every time I might have something figured out, everything shattered.

It was a bit long...granted there's a lot of story to tell and it did need to be told. Some scenes did seem a bit repetitive.

I am purposely leaving this review vague because anything I want to say could be spoilery. Overall, it was a captivating idea and a book I know I'll read again.

**Huge thanks to Bloomsbury and NetGalley for providing the arc in exchange for an honest review**
