Fun and tense mystery novel. Definitely a darker YA book with mentions of some heavy topics, all within the scope of a murder mystery. Felt inspired by the Seriel Podcast and other murder podcasts with its unique writing techniques.

There's a romance subplot so if anyone is looking for something to keep afloat while reading this, stay tuned for the epic romance. You'll see it until the last book.

I absolutely loved this book, I could not put it down. I needed to know what happened next. It was so well written that when you thought you’d figured it out at twist happened and you realised you hadn’t had a clue what really was going on. It was just so fun.

I READ THIS WHOLE SERIES IN A WEEK! I pride myself on guessing who the prime suspect is, I was wrong soooo many times! This author knows murder mystery.

Definitely a five star read. I loved every second of the book. The plot had me so invested and the characters were just ahhh. You won’t regret reading this.
Also Cara is just the best character
