This book was...okay. There are a lot of things going on plot-wise, and some genuinely interesting reveals towards the end. But my main problem is that I did not love any of the characters. I didn't dislike any of them, really, but this was because there wasn't enough there to form an opinion on. The characters felt more like "people who have interesting facts about them" and less like people with distinguishable personalities.
