The POV bounces around between several characters, and I loved that approach to the story. Just when you think you know someone, you realize you have them all wrong. It also had several unexpectedly funny parts. I felt like all these characters were living trainwreck lives and I was just watching to see what crazy thing they did next.
That being said, I was disappointed in the ending. I guess I just wanted more from it and was left with the âThatâs it?â feeling that I hate having after finishing a book. This was a buddy read pick for me and Iâm definitely looking forward to discussing how other people felt about the end!
If you like a school setting, multiple POVs, and characters with questionable morality, youâll probably enjoy this one!

Itâs a solid drama-thriller ( heavy on drama light on thriller), and if you just want a quick but enjoyable read - Iâd recommend this.
