I found it quite exhausting because of how slow it was, and it wasn't the best out of her work- still good though!

That’s book follows a group of friends trying to solve a murder they have been wrongly accused of. We follow them through the ups and downs of there life, as we see how each one of there behaviours reflect upon the other.

Although I have generally loved this author's works (she has become one of my faves and must read), this one was a little bit of a letdown. It's on par with my meh feelings on "one of us is next". I wasn't super excited or pulled to finish it like many of her others but I still enjoyed it enough so it didn't feel like a waste of my time. 
I both liked and hated the ending because

Lara is out and about and got engaged to Mateo's dad?! The hell? But I liked Ivy deciding to go "scorched earth" because that woman should be in jail not only for her involvement with the drugs but also because she's a predator

. 
The characters were nice but I feel they were the least developed/interesting out of all her books that I've read (which is all of them except for her 2022 release). Or maybe I feel like they were too similar to her other characters maybe? Not sure, but I wasn't as invested in them as some of her previous characters. 
The book has it's slow parts but really speeds up towards the end when stuff starts coming together.
