Wow. This book is dark and twisted and seemingly straightforward, but is just a whole mess in a really great way.
I don’t want to say too much and risk ruining it for someone, so I’ll just say I think this story can be summed up in one sentence to me and that is: people are literally insane.
I feel like this could be a really popular book in the same vein as something like We Were Liars and I’m so happy I got here before the flock appears.
Crying score: yeah, a little.
PS read TWs

4 stars- This covered a lot of hard topics! Wow! but in a very compassionate way. I did really enjoy the story, the twists, and turns, not the character's suffering. But it did end differently than I thought it would, for once I didn't know who the murderer was right away! LOL So I was surprised, but it all made sense. Overall a lot of messed up people doing messed up things to each other. High school now sounds like hell!
