This is a book about people making bad decisions under duress, and by the end I think it may be fair to say one of our PoVs is a villain protagonist. The story set into motion by these events is fascinating, and I want to watch these girls become both better and worse.
(I wanted to give this book five stars, but people constantly keeping secrets from each other + a really annoying love triangle dragged it down.)
