How I feel about this book- If this book were a movie, I would put it on and then spend the entire time scrolling through my phone while listening to it play in the background. While interesting enough to keep reading, it fails to deliver the punch needed to really become invested in the story. The emotion just isn't pulling through and making me invested in the story.

This book feels like an author trying to be someone who he is not. This may be coming from what Ive heard about the author (fast paced thriller writer). This is definitely not that! This is very slow paced and no real action. It is like it is supposed to be a character driven novel, without there being any real character development. It feels like The Liar without any real emotion, besides frequent deaths driving it.
