5.0

Well paced, really well written & a book that I just could not put down! I really liked the two timelines (before & after the fire) running side-by-side throughout the book - I thought it was really successfully done and a clever way to drip information to keep you hooked in the story. Moonbeam was a brilliantly rounded character and, although the ending felt a bit abrupt, I thoroughly loved this book!
