• It’s been hard to keep my attention lately (adhd, stress), so being able to do so for such long periods of time with such a thick book is quite a feat! Keisling is up there with the top authors imo. He is a master of language. Not only did I want to wake up earlier to read this before work, I stayed awake longer, read on my lunch break, and anywhere else I could squeeze a few extra minutes in. The story had a natural flow, and just enough suspense to keep me turning the pages. The characters were all very real,  where I both loved and hated them and their actions. This was such a visceral and intense story. There was so much going on, and so many characters, but somehow I didn’t get overwhelmed. That is just how good Keisling is.
