Hmm, this is more of 2.5 for me. I liked the idea of Miriam's ability, and I love/hate her spunkiness. However, this book is much more violent than what I usually read and traffics heavily in profanity. While both of those might not bother me usually since I skim things that make me feel uncomfortable, I listened to this as an audiobook and felt as though I was continually being hit by blood and expletives. I'm a bit curious how the series progresses, though.
