REVIEW
3* read.
This was a unique read in that it started at the end and works back to the beginning and then back to the end. Quite a dark read in places which I wasn't expecting, and a lot of twists and turns to keep you gripped and guessing. There's a lot of themes crammed into the one book which was a but much at times. I felt there should have been less as some issues seemed to be thrown in and not worked to there full potential. Also I struggled to relate to the characters to the point where I found no connection at all which made this a hard read for me.
