The character development has grown enormously in these last chapters. The book is full of suspense and mystery and constantly attracts me to read it. I really enjoyed how the author creates a sense of confusion and mystery by making us feel like we are the characters. By bringing in a new character, Evan Walker, I'm pretty suspicious of him because he seems to be too perfect. I love the realistic story line.

The first few pages of the book really pulled me into the scene. The author writes the first few pages as if the main character is thinking to herself, almost like a thought process, making the story feel more personal. There is a lot of mystery shrouding the characters and setting, which makes me eager to know what happens next. So far the book seems well written and I am excited to know what happens next!
