Writing: 4/5 | Plot: 4/5 (not my fave trope tho) | Ending: 3/5

SYNOPSIS

A teenage girl is attacked but hesitant to report it. And then another teenage girl goes missing shortly after. Could they be connected?!?

MY OPINION

Yesssirrrr that's another 4 stars you see. In August, I gave TWELVE books a 4 or 5 star rating... just call me GIRLWITHTHEPOSITIVEREVIEWS LOOOOL.

Ok anyways... I'll start off by saying this isn't my fave trope. I really don't like the whole Pretty Little Liars/Mean Girls clique-y vibe shit that focuses a lot on teenage drama. I just don't care for it. Give me adultery all day long. But since this is a personal preference and Cara Hunter doesn't design plots around my likes or dislikes, I didn't factor that into the overall rating. If you like this trope, you'll prob love this book more than I did.

Once again–no chapters. But lots of short scenes to keep the pace moving along. Hunter dropped a bomb on me early in the book; I did not see that coming. Once again she shows her skill in taking the ordinary and making it extraordinary. I love the use of mixed media in this series. I know some people are impartial to it, but my lil squirrel brain eats it up.

Yes, suspension of disbelief required. Yes, the ending is over the top. Yes, this is a long one. I still really enjoyed it and am on the hunt for the rest of the series. The only comment that annoyed me was Gis saying "someone remind me about this, will you, when I say I want daughter." As if men aren't out here violently wilding with chest???? No one reads a story about a man annihilating his entire fam and is like: thank god I don't have sons!!!!! but god forbid a girl acts a lil vicious or wears a short skirt and it's pearl clutching season for fathers everywhere. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk

faith’s last video log made me a little teary eyed <3 i love how cara hunter’s plots go in a completely different way than i expect and it’s so incredibly satisfying when pieces click into place. i was wary when we find out about faith but her character and people’s interactions with her were so casual and well written i just was pleasantly surprised :) this was one more well paced like the first one in the series so back to 5 stars!
