Literally obsessed with this. I can’t stop thinking about how well all of the different perspectives were written - it’s exactly how I wanted the 5th Wave to be, and through this book I can see that it’s actually possible. This book was so nuanced, so fluidly written with a cadence that so perfectly balanced dialogue and masterful storytelling. I couldn’t wait to find out who did both crimes, and it unfolded like real life would - messy! For all other thoughts, see Jillian’s review, she hit the nail on the head. I’d recommend this to anyone who likes a thriller or a Dateline-y vibe - with a wee historical setting that made the plot even more layered and interesting. A+!!!!
