Holy shit. Holy shit. Holy shit. And here I was, thinking Holly couldn’t write an even more awesome book. The twists and turns this book took were just something else. No wonder she said this was her favorite. Though I did start looking around my room for any hidden cameras cuz Bel was just a little too much relatable in my opinion. Also the way you think this is just a me vs her thing and then it turns into a story about mothers and daughters and the bonds between them? Ugh, I love it.

3.5

Kept me pretty interested. I actually couldn’t stand the suspense on who to trust and who not to so I looked up spoilers around halfway through. 
You basically couldn’t trust ANYONE in this story, and that drove me a little insane. It keeps you on the edge but it’s also maddening to try and connect to anyone. Anyone at all. 
At one point or another I basically hated everyone. It was twisty and maddening, and yet it still had me. It was really well done. The mystery overall was unexpected and great. The documentary elements were fun. Characters were a disaster, but on purpose.
