4.0

All the plots are now kicking in gear, the characters are now formed, this is were we get blown away in the next copies.

The story heats up as Violet takes on Team Star, the school's resident reprobates, while Scarlet searches for information on her treasure hunt. There are a lot of moving pieces across this story, and it is interesting to see divergences from the games, but I do feel it could do with a tighter focus. At least we've got ordinary student Clive showing up.

Note: I received a digital review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley.

A fun adventure, and we finally get some time with Scarlet. There is a lot going on, so it gets a bit jumbled at times, but it is never dull!

Nothing special happened… but, as always, i like the female main character more than the male…
