Etwas zu viel Trauma (für meinen Geschmack) im Bezug auf die Charaktere. Außerdem schien die Handlung manchmal entwas an den Haaren herbeigezogen.
Trotzdem ein lohnenswertes Buch mit viel Spannung, Mysterien und einem Fokus auf den Charaktern. Lässt sich sehr schnell innerhalb weniger Stunden und mit wenig Aufwand lesen.
Ps: Danke an meine liebe Freundin Thea, die mir dieses Buch ans Herz gelegt hat. Hab dich lieb <3

The exploration of Nora's identities was very well done. While the younger two had few details, I feel that I really got to know Haley, Katie and Ashley. The trauma incurred and their responses to it were the most realistic part of the book, to the point where I suggest checking content warnings before reading. Additionally, I really liked the dynamic between Nora, Iris and Wes, especially how Iris stepped into the role of Nora's accomplice. It's always nice to see explicitly bisexual characters, and here we've got two of them!
I wasn't so much a fan of how the past was revealed. It skipped around, teasing without telling, and I sometimes wasn't sure when or who I was. There were also a few mysteries teased but never delivered upon, such as the forest fire. It was made out to be a whole big thing, but we never saw the moment go down, and were left to piece together what might have happened from what came before and after. That seemed odd to me, given that it was such a pivotal moment in the Nora-Wes-Iris drama.
