really liked it

This novel had it all: interesting and creepy characters, a deserted island, mysterious deaths, and multiple plot twists. Even though most of the time I couldn't put the book down, sometimes I found myself losing interest in the plot because of how predictable some of the revelations were, despite the fact that some of them were unexpected. More explanation of the world would have been helpful; the author provided us with so little information that I occasionally got lost and found it difficult to understand how their world functioned.

Of all the characters, I enjoyed Kristen's character the most, but I do wish we would get to see more of her thought process and the way she grew up. I think it would help us understand her character more, (view spoiler)

I also wish we would get longer chapters about their lives on the island instead of the long chapters about the BEFORE. At times, I found myself skipping over some parts of the past because they were too long and didn't really offer the insight into Kirsten's life I was looking for.

Overall, I would really recommend this book to fans of mystery. It will have you hooked from the beginning until the end!

I would like to thank NetGaley and Tor Publishing Group for giving me a chance to read this novel in exchange for an honest review.
