The Lucky Ones

I'm not sure I'm on board with the ultimate lesson this book is attempting to make about the difference between secrets and lies. Or where its main characters land on that spectrum.

The characters (particularly Thor and Deac) were varying levels of lovable. But I'm baffled why the author made Roland a monk at all if he performed exactly one (1) monklike thing the entire book. It just felt like a strange and pointless plot obstacle that didn't even stand up to a slight wind in the face of Allison's super sexy super sexiness.

I kept reading wondering if it would land closer to Umbrella Academy or CSI and it sort of never decided what it wanted to be. But it was a perfectly good way to fill a flight home from vacation.
