I don't usually go for mysteries, but this one got me. An original twist on a few cliché plot points/devices. A good puzzle to put together.

I didn’t really know anything about this book before I went in, except that it was a murder-y breakfast club situation. That being said, I ended up really liking it! There are a good amount of twists and turns throughout, and I had fun trying to guess what was going to happen next. I thought the entire ending was wild in the best way, gripping, and just bordering on unbelievable without fully crossing that line. I’d recommend to any murder mystery fans!

i love how the main four characters are supposed to be these 1 dimensional characters & super cliché but by the end of the book, they have personalities & have grown out of the cliché.
