I felt like this book was made for me. Main character was great, and so many great details throughout without feeling too "pop culture." I do wish there had been more about the school/classes element (and a little weird that the anatomy class at this special school does not acknowledge the skin as an organ?), but overall enjoyed this listen. 

I do wish that the books in this series were standalone, which I know is personal preference, but the ending felt VERY incomplete and was a bit disappointing for me.

I absolutely adore this series. Stevie is an excellent protagonist and the layers of clues in this book means you’ll likely miss something first time around like I did. This is definitely just the start of the series but it’s so worth reading for context. I’d highly recommend.
