The way this book is written is what makes it so wonderful. It starts at the end and back tracks, revealing more and more answers and details as we travel back in time with the main character. Beautiful writing. Really a page turner.

I liked this book quite a bit! It was very hard to understand but that's my fault, not the books. Although the protagonist is pretty insane, i really liked reading her perspective. When I got to the end, i think there was some kind of twist but it was hard for me to understand, again probably my fault. I think I'll have to read it again. I had to have enjoyed it though cause i finished it in one sitting.

I read this book when it first came out and it has been sat on my shelf since. I decided to pick it back up for a reread as I remember I enjoyed it but couldn't remember much about the storyline. I loved it just as much the 2nd time round, I'd forgotten all of the twists and turns and was enthralled by it! Such a cleverly written tbriller

I really liked that the story was told backwards. I found this very interesting and original. One thing I didn't like was the the two main characters, Jule and Imogen, mainly because o didn't care about them.

cool how the timeline goes backwards so everything starts unravelling at the end but its all about identity theft n psycho besties.

didn't expect the plot to be like that and its not THAT interesting theres a bit of action and i got lazy to read those parts i wish it was more of her n her thoughts n like internal conflicts yk?
