One of the best murder mystery books I've read! Just when I thought I'd figured it out, there was more information to keep me guessing.

Che dire, ottima lettura per uscire dal blocco. Intrattiene, i personaggi sono amabili e il tipo di narrazione rende il tutto più scorrevole. 🤌🏻

Completely addictive and very fun. I could not put this down!

This reminded me a little of season 1 of Veronica Mars, in the best way.

I loved this book! Finally a protagonist in a crime novel who is not dumb and me seeing the plot twist from miles away. I truly didn’t know what happened to Andi Bell and I loved guessing along side Pip and Ravi. The plot really kept me on my toes and I wish I could read it again without knowing what happens. I also thought the entries in between chapters were really smart.

This was a good book and an interesting read, I think I would’ve liked this more in high school. It covers some heavy topics that I felt that it just glossed over and I didn’t love that. It also felt very PLL esq.
