This was by far the most interesting book I have read so far. (Maybe this was because I chose my books based on lengths, rather than which stories actually stood out to me ^o^). All the other readings I’ve done had me zoning out and re-reading paragraphs, but this one was able to be completed […]
When I was first reading this book, I honestly did not know what to expect. I initially thought this was going to be something related to the main character being a spy (Hence the name trenchcoat).
