Thoughts

There were a couple of times in this book where I thought about giving up, the story was good and the humour was really well done - not over the top and in your face, but occasionally laugh out loud funny. But it felt like it took a while to get going and occasionally felt a bit directionless. However, I stuck with it and it was worth it. The flipping a coin thing isn’t new at this point but I like that it influences the story in both good and bad ways here.

Rating: 3 / 5
