Better than expected
I keep coming back to a few passages. No typos that I noticed, which is rare at this price.

Loved the ending
Clear writing, good structure, and it respects your time. Formatting was clean on my e-reader.

Clean file, easy read
I was skeptical at first, but by chapter three I could not put it down. Left me thinking about it the next day.
