the mystery was pretty cut and dry and over too quickly, other than a slight twist at the end that doesn't really change very much

Very voice-y and absolutely brilliant. Best of the year so far! 

Not a 5 star because it felt like the book ended twice. It was very strange. 

*revising to a 5 star. I keep thinking about it. It's just so good!

THIS. BOOK. WAS. SO. GOOODD!
The fact that Molly (the main character) has a hard time understanding people’s emotions adds to the mystery of this whole murder mystery storyline. I felt bad for her, I wanted to be there for her, but, mainly, I wanted to give her a big hug. That’s how good the writing is. And, to add to all of this, when I thought the story was finished, the very last pages managed to surprise me and litterally had my jaw dropped. Ans easy 5-stars books! 👏

* Adding Nita Prose on my I-want-to-read-everything-they-come-up-with list * 🙌🏻
