dark reflective sad medium-paced

3.0

Pretty solid story, but I didn't LOVE it. I liked seeing how the sisters relationship grew and changed. I knew a bunch of people who were in crosscountry so that was pretty cool to read a story centered around a sport people don't really focus on. I think the very end was pretty satisfying. Wish Noah would've faced more consequences tho.

something doesn't add up for me... if Raven just dropped Mila down and left her there dead, why was there a blood trail? why did Ellie and Noah not find her body when they looked in the pit later in the day? why was there a blanket covering her body? 
just for these questions I'm gonna tale off one star, so overall 3 ⭐

I kinda guessed the mystery for this one but I still liked the character-building in the story. It was mostly fast-paced except it was a bit repetitive. But overall I enjoyed it

This was a really good story. I enjoyed this even though the writing style wasn’t amazing. I thought the final twist was… okay. I didn’t see it coming, but it wasn’t really an aha moment. Also, I found the storyline about Coach being a villain was confusing and underdeveloped. I did really like the whole Allison Tarley storyline, though. I think this author tried to shove a few too many storylines into one shortish book. Although I guess that is reflective of life!
