I wouldn’t say this is my favorite Jessica Goodman book, but I thought this was still good! The rich private school setting with an elite club was an interesting concept! I think having 3 different POVs made it a little difficult to keep up at first, but eventually I was able to keep up and make sense of it. I do think it was a very interesting choice to not even reveal who died until the very end! This book did keep me guessing and had many turns I would not have expected! Overall, it was pretty good!

I didn't know who was going to be the one who was dead until the reveal. However, I guessed the who killed them part. I also say other parts of the story coming, mostly revolving around the settlement. I did like how the past with Tori's mom intersected with the now and Tori's life.
However, most of the characters weren't very likable, which made the book a bit harder to enjoy. Though all the narrators were excellent!
It was overall a good thriller with lots of twists and turns.

People who like things like Gossip Girl or Pretty Little Liars will probably thoroughly enjoy this one! I found the mystery a little easy to figure out, but that's part of the reason I like coming back to these books. They always guarantee a twisty mystery and definitely make for quick reads.
