This was the weakest book in the series. Really slow with not a lot happening, then it felt like they rushed the ending.

Thank you so much Scholastic for sending me a copy in exchange for an honest review.

I definitely enjoyed this one a lot more than the previous book however I found myself struggling to pick up from where we left off. I stopped following the tv show after season 2 so it took a while for me to figure out where everyone was and who these Stonewall kids were. - But I figured it out and definitely enjoyed the read.

This story definitely had a better plot compared to the others. I felt like this plot could actually have gone somewhere and I would have enjoyed it. Unfortunately, this plot didn't go anywhere and took forever to place into action.

As per usual, the writing definitely suits each individual character and I loved how there was a lot more Cheryl and Toni.

I would still say that the first book remains my favourite.

3.5 stars, it did help with some of the story lines that have happened in season 4 of Riverdale and I think it's convinced me to watch the chilling adventures of Sabrina on Netflix now after they had an appearance in the book. It was a crossover between the Riverdale cheerleading squad, the stonewall prep and also the cheerleading team for the chilling adventures of Sabrina and it was so much fun to be back in this world again. Another good thing is that, we get to see sides of characters that we don't get to see much of from the TV show in the book, it was nice to hear Reggies side of things for once and not have Archie be the main character.
