I liked reading about Iris and her actual serious issues at home, but Alice was a no right from the start. She was just so out of touch it made me roll my eyes every other chapter.
Crying score: nope

While this book was wildly, massively unrealistic, I absolutely loved it. The entertainment value of it was off the charts, and while for the most part it was just a fun, corny murder mystery involving high school kids, it also dealt with some really heavy subject matter in a very impactful way. I had heard next to nothing about this book before I picked it up, and I'm really glad I gave it a chance because I got much more than I was expecting.

Shipped the main characters so hard but I'm thinking they're both straight, unfortunately.
