those of you saying this is ms. feeny's most unhinged/best book are delulu i fear ðŸ˜
this by far is my least favorite feeny. i always enjoy her writing and i loved the setting in this one but i feel like 80-85% of this book was literal crumbs. no twists. no information gained. nothing. it was fast to read but nothing was happening AT ALL. and then from 80% to 95% is us just being teased back and forth about getting the twists revealed and then it switching povs multiple times. like why are you edging me this long? and then the twists were not crazy. they were not jaw dropping. they were just fine.
that's how i feel about this whole book honestly. it was just fine.
