Gutes, spannendes Buch. Es hat mich jetzt nicht so weggehauen wie der erste Teil, aber dafür fand ich die 1980er-Sommer-auf-einer-privaten-Insel-Vibes suuuper cool und spaßig 🏖️🍦⛵️🥐🧊🍓
Ich habe mich jetzt nicht mehr wirklich an den exakten Plot im ersten Buch erinnert, aber eigentlich konnte man diese Story auch so einwandfrei verstehen. 

Dadurch dass es ein Jugendbuch ist, war die Sprache relativ simpel und man kommt echt schnell durch das Buch. Ich glaube aber auch, dass mir genau deswegen, irgendwas gefehlt hat… aber I can‘t quite put my finger on it 🤔. Das Ende fand ich ziemlich hervorsehbar, weil man diese dunkle Wendung der Geschichte schon aus dem ersten Buch kennt, aber ich fand, dass das Leseerlebnis dadurch nicht gemindert wird :).

Also insgesamt, ein gutes Buch und perfekt für so stressige Tage vor den Klausuren, wenn man nichts Kompliziertes/ Langes lesen kann.

I much preferred We Were Liars but this one was alright I guess. All of the like bits I loved in We Were Liars was not in this.

This was garbage, but still not the worst thing I’ve ever read.
