I really liked the ending and there were certainly a lot of "twists and turns," but I didn't find the story or most of the characters super engaging. Vicky was the saving grace to me. I probably would have DNF'd this novel if it weren't for her character.

Did not finish book. Stopped at 0%.
I loved Theo's POV, but Kit drove me nuts.
