Best thriller I read this year. Almost every chapter ends with a shocking twist.
Not only is it very informative, but it's also very well written, not condescending and funny at times.
I would rate it higher save for the fact that the love interest is 19 who is involved with an immortal being, age is more than a number Sarah.
The other star that knocked off is for the extremely long wait to explain why events where happening. 300 pages to explain why everyone is acting weird towards the protagonist is unkind.
Save for the two previous complaints I loved the world building and story in general, the romance is well written.
It's unfair to judge this book by today's standards, but that being said, the unsolicited critism of femininity and straight-up transphobia is jarring. It's hard to believe that this book was seen as a controversial book just cause it has gay stuff.
