As of writing this review, the only thing I want to do is go lie down...

I'm not fully sure how I feel about the book in its entirety, so I'll stick to the facts: the writing is exceptionally well done, the characters are multi-layered and intriguing, the plot is twisty and very surprising. 

I have many thoughts about plot points and motivations, etc., but overall I'm very happy with this read purely because it kept me interested. You know the writing and story is good that you don't want to put the book down, and fear when you're going to pick it up next. For a debut novel, Parks-Ramage did an amazing job of telling a powerful story that is both uncomfortable, but important and poignant. I can't wait to see what he does next.
