4.0

This was a slower read beautifully done. While the plot moved quickly the focus was less action based and more about the every day life of a very under appreciated niche. Reading about the daily life made the characters feel more real and close. Excellent foreshadowing that fed the plot perfectly. Imagery was so real that you could smell and feel it. Characters varied from good, bad and in between but all so well done you could understand where their actions were coming from. Romance/relationship building high with unfortunate fade to black. 

Thank you Penguin Random House Books and NetGalley for the access of this advanced reader copy in exchange for an honest review
