I can't believe I almost gave up on this book. Seriously. I read the first two chapters in my physical copy and was not feeling it. But then for some reason I thought that maybe trying the audiobook would help. And then I powered through this in like 3 or 4 sittings. 
 Like, you guys, this is a 4.5 star book for me. 
 And I almost DNFed it. 
 HORROR. 
 I'm going to blame my own funky brain for this. For convincing myself I wasn't going to care about it. 
 Anyway, holy smokes this was super great. The back and forth between past and present timelines. The high stakes. The plot twists! SO MANY PLOT TWISTS. It was fantastic, action packed and difficult to stop listening to. I am definitely going to be picking up book 3 on audio sooner rather than later, because oh my heart that ENDING.
