OK. How do I even start? Another wild ride as usual. And just like the previous book, it did not take long at all before I was absolutely hooked. definitely a point there. Was not expecting that sad and intense ending, and I am equal parts intrigued and very, very nervous for what the next book has in store for me. The plot was very well planned and thought out as always (thank you Holly Jackson), and the Brunswick part of the story kinda took me off guard, but in a great way, and I love how it tied into the whole story! I did think that Jamie Reynolds' motivations and purpose in the whole thing was a bit ridiculous, but the again, I don't know what goes on thru the minds of 24 year old having an existential crisis, therefore I have no right to judge. I'm just glad he was actually alive and well this time, unlike our first victims. 

That's all for now, I had absolute blast as always, and I'm very excited for the finale!!

Not as good as the first but still pretty fun. Had some good twists, but I didn’t like how mystery ended. Other than that I thought the ending was quite good, well written, at least the ending was.

Bit of a slow ramp up to the tension but once it got going I was engrossed. I couldn’t put the book down!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS BOOK. I would definitely recommend this. Pip deserves the world. Max Hasting pissed me off. Ravi is just ❤️. Cara slayed. Jamie was kinda meh. I felt that he was a bit naive and he really really needs to get his life straightened out. I disliked him a lot and I feel so bad for his parents. Nat was portrayed wonderfully

I will admit that, at the start, I wasn’t as hooked in this book as I was in the first. However, Holly Jackson’s characters are so deep and developed they practically jump off the page and draw you in. Pip’s development definitely kept me invested and as the mystery starts to unravel, I couldn’t put it down.
