The first half of this book dragged. The characters came across as whiny, and I struggled to care about their interpersonal drama. Still, I kept reading after hearing that the “plot twists were so good and unexpected,” and (as much as I hate to admit it) they were right. I didn’t see any of the twists coming, and they were just grounded enough to feel believable. In the end, Feeney’s strong storytelling saved Rock Paper Scissors from a lower rating.
