This book was fast paced and kept me reading. Each chapter was a little bit of a cliffhanger, and it was interesting to read the story from multiple perspectives.

The book really has you going, thinking you figured it out but NOPE, gives you twist and then another.
Loved that way its written, from multiple different views.
You never know who to trust.
Great read!

I love the head fakes placed to make you think you’ve figured out the story AND the additional add on twists in the end. 
Fantastic read.

*sigh*

Was I supposed to like anyone in this book? 

Except for Bob. I love Bob. 

But other than that, everyone was terrible.
