Extremely predictable but very well written. I feel like the topics were well researched. I was going to give it 5 stars until the epilogue; the ending was a bit hard  to believe and the final twist was just… unnecessary.

This book irritates me a lot. The whole first half had me going, "Well, it won't do this, right? It would be too cliche... so it won't happen, right?". Wrong. It did happen and was executed pretty badly.

Also the very last plot twist at the ending had me side-eyeing the book in a whole new way because it made the one character 1) incredibly hypocritical, and 2) if not hypocritical then stupid as fuck and not the genius written to be. 

Also... did I mention the twists were cliche and honestly poorly executed?

Let’s just say it was plot twist after plot twist towards the end
