This is a dark book. In many ways, you can't fully trust the narrator and are kept in the dark about what is going on similar to We Were Liars, but with darker themes. There is a murder that happens and the book is about solving that murder, kind of, but it's mostly about our main character, Georgia's, journey

of getting caught up and manipulated by those around her.

she brings her mouth to my ear. "every night is like this," she whispers.
-
it made no difference. there's no escaping it. some part of me will always be finding her here. some part of her will always be here, waiting to be found.

WHEW ok!!!! i thought this was very successfully depressing & searing & awful, though not as shining-shimmering unique as Sadie, which might’ve been a once-in-a-lifetime experience for me (read the audio on a walk during a midsummer thunderstorm & finished by evening candlelight. you just can’t beat Sadie by thunderstorm & candlelight). 

regardless this did work on me -- especially georgia, who i found deeply realistic, unfortunately :) thought the pacing was a little quick near the end, but c'est la vie. rooting for my girlies here and everywhere!
