eeh i didn't realise this was part of the series so that's annoying. it really feels too silly for me, a lot of eye rolls were involved

I loved this book so much it was so fun to read and I enjoyed it immensely. The plot twists were well written this book made me smile and laugh it was just fun. I enjoyed the characters and how they interacted their relationships were so good. I loved the little romance that went on and how it didn't take over the whole book.

I loved the book when I started it and thought it would be a five star read. The plot was really intriguing, I enjoyed the writing style and found the MC to be really relatable. And THEN the author just had to introduce that romance which ruined the whole vibe for me. It turned me off the book so much that it took me 7 months to finish the last 40% cause it just annoyed me that much.

SUCH A MYSTERY!! I really enjoyed all the twists and turns, the ending was SO UNPREDICTED! I didn't think she'd leave me hanging like she did!! Thank you Halle for recommending it to me!

For Journal: Purple, files, sticky notes, paper, material things. Lots of mystery and investigative themed doodles and elements.
