3.5

 This was a solid but heavy read. Definitely check trigger warnings before reading. Overall, the plot was good and the characters were great. Vermette created an interwoven cast of characters, each with their own story, although it took most of the book for me to figure out who was who and how everyone was connected.

The book definitely dragged in the middle, and it could be confusing as the book moved quickly through different characters, but overall this was a solid read.
