Going into this I was slightly less hopeful after the first book. I thought McManus’ writing was adequate but nothing spectacular. This book felt slightly more interesting to me than the first but I was slightly disappointed in how easily I was able to guess the plot twists. Overall a decent book.

the plot on this one was better than the first book , but i love the character on "one of us i lying" more . Knox basically carried this book !! cuz without him i probably would've dnf it 
 

the og4 was featured in this book too . i love that I could read about  them more after the Simon incident . Nate and Bronwyn !!

This book is absolutely amazing. I could not stop reading it!

I totally thought that it was Phoebe behind everything since she was so adamant about Maeve not looking at the revenge forums. I was very surprised to find out it was Emma (her older sister). Then I found out it was Owen!?!? By the last chapter, I was sure that the plot twists were over so I was not prepared to find that out. I wonder if anyone else will find out that it was Owen that continued the messages.

This book has a lot of great twists and turns.

this book from my memory (i’m writing this like months after) was so amazing. i loved the first book and forgot it was a series. anyways i picked up this book and i remember loving it. but my bookmark says otherwise. apparently i was not a fan of the love square going on. i totally wish things would have ended differently.

my little reading heart wanted Maeve to end up with Knox but i get it. still a little disappointed tho
