this book was okay-ish.
some of the decisions made seem really unreasonable and unrealistic. like Tom all of a sudden complying and telling Monica about the investigation when he swore not to and said he never would. idk it doesn’t make sense to me. the way it’s written was super confusing and honestly hard to follow. it wasn’t terrible but i also didn’t enjoy it whatsoever either.

This was a really fun twisty murder mystery. It does deal with very heavy topics, so please read trigger warnings. However, I found this book very compelling and page turning. I kept coming back to listen! However, the ending was a little lackluster for my taste. It kinda felt like they picked a killer out of nowhere and didn’t really have any lead up to make you think it was this person at all. Not in a good “I couldn’t have guessed it, unexpected” way, but in a why would it be that person, it doesn’t really make sense” kind of way. I mean I get it, but it seemed like a little bit of a reach. But the final reveal, oof, loved that. I expected it but still loved it. Some other parts were a little predictable, but nonetheless, I enjoyed it.
