a super easy read, i was able to read it in less than a day. it went super fast and was easy to keep track of the storyline. i will admit, i did have trouble differentiating the friends of the two sisters, but i loved the way the story switched between time periods. super addictive

A little slow at the beginning but once things started happening, it picked up. I wish the whodunnit reveal had a little more oomph but it wasn't the worst. And I wish we knew if the person would actually get charged with the all the things they needed to be charged with. I did enjoy the very last bit with Ginny, I wasn't expecting it. And I liked how Ethan's character turned out.

I wish we found out about what would happen with Tom and Mike knowing that Tom killed an innocent man. And like besides emotion clouding judgement, why he was so quick to kill an innocent man

This book was amazing! The first half of the book however, took me ages to get through, nearly 2 weeks, and I didn’t have much ambition to read it, however the second half took me two days to read.

A solid book, though I'm glad I didn't spend money on it.
The characters were a little bland and I constantly mixed up all of the girls for that reason.
The ending was a bit disappointing, I was hoping for a more interesting twist, some kind of scheme, not just

a coincidence that tied the deaths together.
Throughout the book I was constantly fearing that B & M would end up together, which, luckily they didn't, and it made sense for him to be the murderer. However, I still felt like the topic of him being a predator wasn't fleshed out with enough care, as it still ended up with Monica going "well...I used him, too, sooo..." No girl. You're 16. He's 27.
