Wow! After what feel like a never ending stream of disappointing books this was another great read! I loved the writing and the disjointedness of it all. I haven’t felt the need to stay up to finish a book in forever and I stayed up just to finish this tonight. I kept needing to know how and why with every chapter. I loved the build up to it all and the way characters are shown through the eyes of a very self aware main character. 

I was going to rate this 4.5 stars but as I was writing out my reasoning I had to pause and think. I originally wasn’t the happiest with the ending but after some thought I don’t think it could have ended better. I had to endings I had wanted to happen and I would have been happy with either so I am more than satisfied with this story. Just wow … I feel like I’ll be thinking about this book for a while.
