I went back and forth over my opinion of this book. I liked the core parts such as the plot and world building but in some places the execution just fell flat and that's not saying that I didn't like the book - I did but just not in the way I wanted to. I wasn't excited to continue, I was interested in continuing the book but I was thinking about it all the time in the way that I normally do when a book excites me. There's a disconnect if that makes sense. I want to finish the story but I'm not invested in the characters - Violet in particular was just very stupid at times and there was no redemption for me. 

Thank you Net Galley, Hodder & Stoughton and Hodderscape for the ARC in exchange for my honest review
