Uhhhhhh what the fuck lol. Twisty, a bit predictable, but overall a decent and entertaining read. Unfortunately some unnecessary fatphobia.

3.75

I give this 3.75 because the ending didn’t match the intensity of the rest of the book. The first 3/4 of the book were fabulous! Amber was annoying- selfish & despicable in most of her chapters.  I really liked Jules but hate the way things ended for her.  Interesting subject matter to explore…
