was quite slow at times but when it picked up I really liked it, the ending kind of ruined it for me as it felt quite dragged out and overly confusing but the middle bit was sooo good

heggoandhoggo's review against another edition

I had already listened to the audio book so I knew what happened. I asked for it for Christmas but I wasn't expecting to get it. This meant when I actually got it I didn't really want to read it.

This book is good. But it can be quite Graphic.

quite a few people die

There is a case of borderline

abuse lots of the gory stuff happens before the book starts and the book is sort of a reaction to it. One of the characters experiences lots of suicidal thoughts but you find that out early on.

A fire is lit late into the book but one of the characters dies by a car accident before the book starts

I found the plot a bit difficult to navigate and there was a lot of jumping around.

I hoped for more with this book and I really think it had potential. 
The book was very predictable and just confusing at times. There were so many plot twists that felt rushed and hard to follow as they were not explained and I was left feeling confused. The start was intriguing but towards the end so much was going on I didn’t enjoy it. It’s sad because I loved books like these.
