This is a thriller with teenagers that was well written, well paced and well constructed. I liked this straight forward writing. I liked the storytelling.
I didn't get that much attached to the characters except for Nora but I was surprised that it didn't bother me that much.
Nora's story (and her sister's) is tough. This book was darker than I thought it'd be, as it is the story of an abuse (of all kind) survivor who went through horrifying things.
Truthfully, I don't have much to say. I had a good time, I'm glad I had my bisexual and endometriosis representation, and I'm glad I tried the thriller genre.

- Very fast paced and intriguing
- Alternates between past and present
- Bisexual main character
- Nora and her friends have gone through a lot of trauma with abusive family members and/or partners, so the book is heavy on the aspects of trauma and survival.
- Nora, Wes and Iris are all intriguing characters! I think it would be cool if Iris and Wes had their own books. I liked Nora and Iris’s relationship.
- Iris has endometriosis. It was cool to see that represented in the book.
