Had me hooked and almost read it in one go. Wasn't as intense as some say it is, but still enough mystery and thrill for me to want to find out what happened next asap!

This was much better than I expected. I loved the format of the chapters … the mother being the main character and then the daughter doing video diary entries. It was very engaging.

I didn’t really love any of the characters, but I fully enjoyed the story. I found the friendship dynamics to be really interesting and different than I’ve read in most books.
