Alll spoilers. You’ve been warned
Liked: the amount of characters didn’t feel like too much or anything. Everyone was interesting in their own way too.
The level of suspense was amazing
Loved the mentions of music, history, Black culture & slang etc. everything flowed
Liked that they added that Claudia’s mom saw her on her last day. Like that was…chilling
I liked that the main character was dyslexic and whatnot. Don’t see much rep IMO
Loved that she added a part of Monday’s diary.
Loved the talks about colors too
Some parts like the drugs…thought that’d be the reason why she did it
Disliked: sometimes Claudia felt annoying or too naive or too…I don’t know. Too many mentions of “if Monday was here I would—“ but then she was so quick to throw the diary under her bed
The timelines but I get it. Think it was like that because Claudia’s mind was like that
Didn’t really care for the plot twist that Claudia was just reliving things. But, at least things were wrapped up well.
Claudia’s parents age gap was gross to me
Claudia’s dad
(Ofc Monday’s mom, but that has nothing to do with how she was written? Like she’s the bad person. I am to hate her)
Can’t tell about April? Like, i don’t get if they were saying she killed Monday because she was gonna talk…because she said she didn’t even know if she was gone
This is linked to a real story. It’s such a sad real story, and this one…wow my heart aches

Review from August 2022:
5/5
I LOVED this book. For a 400+ page book it kept me hooked and the plot twist made me want to re-read the whole story again. This was insanely sad and I love how the characters are written. Overall, a must-read!!!
