This book lost me somewhere around the point a character admitted to smoking meth to be better at baseball.

It was good, I liked the jealousy, betrayal, and mystery on board a school cruise. Is that a real thing? Cause thats super cool.

The main character wasnt my favorite but I liked all the others. Everyone has secrets, and a couple people go missing and die on the cruise! You follow Jade as she tries to find out who murdered who, before its pinned on her. Jade is always in the wrong place at the wrong time.

5/5

Oh my gosh. This freaking book. At first, I was on the fence about this book for I was unsure how I would find it interesting after all the previous books I've read this month that are murder mysteries. This one caught me off guard in the first chapter though, and I couldn't've been more excited. The main character had a sort of snarky attitude and way of talking with others while at the same time she was able to explain to the audience what had happened behind the scenes without it feeling like a monologue. The other thing I liked about this book was the characters. oh man the characters. I found it kind of an interesting bunch to put into one room. The only ones that I didn't enjoy that well were the twins. I get how they helped the plot but at the same time I felt they didn't have enough speaking scenes. We got to know then, then moved on. Now onto the boyfriend DANG I enjoyed his character. Without spoiling anything, ifykyk. This book had all types of twists and turns and I felt like it was that one spider-man meme we all know and love. (please tell me you all know the one i'm talking about) Out of all the plot I found the ending to be the one that had me turning the pages like rapid fire. I was freaking out to say the least. Though, I found that it ended almost abruptly. With no after the fact chapter, I was left kind of sad. But it wasn't enough to not give this book the five stars it deserves.
