A re-read of mine that I decided to consume through the audio-book version and absolutely loved it! The production of this audio-book is so well done and amazing especially when it comes to the sound effects and making the words come to life from the book. As for the book itself - Holly will never cease to amaze me with the way she structured this series. My initial read did not pick up on all the little hints and clues she left for the rest of series to develop from, but you best believe my second reread picked up on nearly all and it just makes me appreciate her writing and mind even more. Would definitely recommend for lovers of Nancy Drew, PLL, Truly Devious aka all small town mystery thriller lovers!

This is a book that everyone should read. This is a must read if you are a beginner. 
This book actually got me out of a reading slump. This was actually a page turner. This is so good. So many twists and turns after each chapter. The plot twists made me insane.
The characters in the book ; there were characters in this book that I hate to the core and also I love to the core.
Especially Max Hashtings. He us a moron. He knew sal didn't murdered Andy, but he kept telling that Sal was the murderer. I hate Sal's friends. No matter whatever their reason was, they betrayed him. Sal was innocent. And Sal was murdered. I felt very sad and I cried. The way that bastard Elliot explained how he killed Sal, my heart was aching for Sal. How could he fo that to Sal. Sal loved and believed Elliott. And for the killer of Andie I was shocked that it was her own sister Becca. But I won't completely hate her, because she had valid reasons. But she had the audacity to call Sal the killer, even she knew it was her. I hate her for that.
 
And tbe chemistry between Pip and Ravi. OMG!They are so sweet. The way Ravi calling Pip "𝗦𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲". Eventhough there wasn't a romantic scene like in every book ; like no butterflies in stomach and confessions and more kisses something like that. But we could feel their love that they have for each other.
And the way Pip's dad Victor calling her, "𝗣𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗹𝗲". I love her family.
Overall, this book was a great book for me. I loved Holly Jackson's style of writing. With production logs, Interview formats and diary entries, Everything make exciting to read this book. I loooovvvveddd it. I think every thriller book needs any of this things like case diaries or production logs or diary entries so that it could be fun to read for the readers.
I am looking forward to the second book. I am so excited. I am looking forward to read more of Holly Jackson's books..
Thank you for this book ❤️.
