WHAT. THE. HELL.

Amazing YA thriller, got me hooked right from the start. I loved the plot of the book, and the characters. Drew stood out to me the most because of how determined he was to find his girlfriend. I honestly kind of suspected the plot twist because of how

Lola and Madison's timelines didn't match up, but I thought they were the same person all along right up until the third quarter of the book

That still made it a very good read and

Ben Hooper's story is a twisted thing

The only reason this wasn't a 5 star read because of how unrealistic some of the scenes would be. But SUCH an awesome read for people who love thrillers and suspense.

I love how this book is separated into chapters in both the "girl's" perspective as well as Drew's. This book had me going through a range of emotions. Anxious, sad, heartbroken, hopeful.... It was really well written! 
Drew, as the boyfriend of the missing girl, unfortunately has been the point of blame for the town and the sheriff. The girl with no memory is learning more about herself as experiences give her clues as to who she is before her "accident." The balance between their two perspectives really helps shape this story piece by piece!
