Unfortunately, this one was a huge flop for me. I guessed the twist before the halfway point in the book and was hoping it wasn't that because that trope is so overdone. I also found the story hard to follow. It felt like you were jumping from idea to idea rather than a continuous story. There was also a lot of graphic violence that I felt was for shock value more than to drive the plot or necessary. Also, some plot holes at the end. 2/5
