Not sure how to rate this? I liked the idea and the story, but my stars, the writing? It just drags on and on and on. This book could’ve been so much shorter than it was. There is so much (unnecessary) exposition and some dialogue is extremely repetitive.  Didn’t care for most of these characters and I think all the different POVs in the story actually ruined some of the more ‘shocking’ plot points, because the reader was already aware of most things before some characters were. Also, Mercedes deserved better. What kind of ending was that even?
