(I received a free copy of this book from Victory Editing, through NetGalley, in exchange for a review).
(This review may contain spoilers).
This was a book that grew on me as I read it. It started out as fairly hard to read, but by the end, I found myself pulled into the book, better able to connect with the characters. They did grow on me quite a bit by then.
Annie was an interesting character from the beginning. Although she’s clearly quite a strong character, I felt that she had good, realistic weaknesses. That was clear right from the start, even though I wasn’t very sure of her.
Nick and Derek were both interesting characters in their own way. Most of the characters came across as fairly well-balanced, but a few of them seemed evil for the sake of evil and I couldn’t quite figure out anything even remotely good about them.
I did really like Kevin as a character and I would have liked to see more of his relationship with his brother.
The powers thing was a pretty interesting idea and actually one of the things I felt gave me answers to all my questions by the end.
I do think that there was a bit too much skipping over of passages during the book. One of the things that made it difficult at the beginning was the fact that I felt most of it was being summarised. I really struggled to picture anything happening in my mind.
I did see some errors in this book, but not a huge amount. I would be interested in reading more books in this series in the future and checking out other books by the same author.
