A really good read, the main character is nuanced and the plot strong -- even though the trope "I have a really dark secret, let me tell you about it much later" is a bit overused in novels, it still works, as the story is more than just that.

Good beginning and plenty of interesting ideas throughout the book, but the pacing falls apart, and the characters lack of depth and real evolution.
(Also, by the middle of the book, it become apparent that one of the main POV character isn't very smart, and by the end, she's obviously dumb as rocks. And then, like that, the book ends.)

It's a bit of a disappointment that, yet again, the reader is left to try to make sense of the characters, plot and wtf is going on. I wish I didn't have to go on forums to find out important information that was only very, very slightly hinted at in the book. It's one thing to want revelations and plot-twists and ah-ah-moments, it's another to leave the reader completely in the fog for 500 pages. If the writing wasn't that good and the characters that compelling, I would've left it a while ago.
