I usually read more than one book at the same time. Different genres, authors and I'm usually able to do it.
It was not possible with this book as I had to read it and wasn't able to put it down. I had to stop from time to time because you have to work/sleep/eat/etc but I kept on thinking about the plot and wondered what was going to happen.
I think that defining this story gripping is a sort of understatement but I cannot find another word. Let's say you start reading and you keep on reading and then it's over. You're having a lot of fun and you want more fun and to read some more pages even if it's late in the night.
As this is a review I assume I have to write something meaningful like: gripping plot, great characters, a highly entertaining story.
Now go and read it.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this arc, all opinions are mine
