Eeeeehhhhhh.... I didn't hate, and the writing is really well done, but I also didn't care about any of the characters. Didn't care what happened to them, thought none of them made smart decisions or were remotely likeable.
Last issue for me were the early chapters, I didn't understand why we had to go through so many chapters twice but from different points of view? Felt unnecessary, and since they're not in the rest of the book, makes me wonder even more why they're in there.

Very different than The Island of Dr. Moreau, but I really enjoyed both stories, as well as the experience of reading both in one month. I feel like Moreno-Garcia never disappoints me; I always find something to love in her writing, and her stories stay with me.
