Harper finds some really important information on Josh and Amelia, but how can she help if she didn't get it legally?
A new adult mystery thriller that is told from multiple POV through blogs, social media posts, and flashbacks, and is a book that you won't be able to put down until the end.
Moderate: Grief
Minor: Death, Blood, Gaslighting, Injury/Injury detail, Emotional abuse, Physical abuse, Murder, and Toxic relationship

The storyline is on the sad side, but I feel like the characters never made a connection to the reader, so you of course feel bad for the characters, but not enough to really mean anything.
Crying score: Wasn't compeling enough to cry.
Moderate: Child death, Grief, Toxic relationship, Violence, Blood, Death, Domestic abuse, Mental illness, Murder, and Suicidal thoughts

Unfortunately I think chekhov's gun was just way too obvious to me. The moment that it was mentioned that
I essentially felt as though I went though the whole of this book hoping that the story wasn't going to be a
I am unsure if the intention was for the reader to understand what had happened with Amelia throughout and were just looking and waiting for the motivation to be revealed. I think it would be the generous position to take and would help to explain why it seemed so transparent. If that was the case, I think the book could have been structured better with Harper, Amelia, and Mignon's chapters interspersed earlier and evenly so that hints and misdirects could have been introduced earlier.
I think there was a little logic absent in the story, especially surrounding
I also didn't like that the ending seemed to have some teeth then changed its mind at the last minute.
I suspect the flaws that I found with this book are because I am not the intended readership of this book. This may be a disservice to young adult readers to say that they may not have picked up on the breadcrumbs that were more like loaves of bread. And maybe they wouldn't be as familiar with
Favourite quotes:
Dying now wouldn't be the worst thing that could happen to her. The worst had already happened.
When I die, hopefully sometime far in the future, I wouldn't mind being buried here among the watchers of Club Nightmare. Place my skeletal remains among the masses, let me become the six million and one. Scatter my bones to lead the way for future travellers, roaming the path between life and death, let my hands hold a candelabra, let my spine support the chandelier, let my skull smile at those who smile back.
