God that was weird! Written/reads more like a short story rather than a novel. I was all set to give it 2 stars but the unsettling & interesting ending bumped it up a notch for me.

3.5 stars would be more accurate. I enjoyed the characters, story, and plot, but it simply felt like there was something missing that could have made it extraordinary.
