I've been sitting on this review for a while thinking I'd find the right words eventually but I've had no luck. I just really enjoyed this book, I was hooked the entire time and excited to see what would happen next. There's always something happening and it never felt like a drag to read. Is Rin a loveable character? Hell no, but if you've read the previous books and expected that then we read different books. She's a character you can feel for but would 100% be terrified of. I found all the characters really interesting all the way to the conclusion and I was gripped to see how it would all end - it didn't disappoint.
