⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I am honestly shocked by this book. At first, I thought it was a little slow, and didn’t really like the characters, but then I really got into it. It’s such a crazy idea that is scary. It also is despicable how racism is really ingrained into our culture and made into tradition.

4.5 ⭐️
this is literally Pretty Little Liars x Get Out with a splash of Gossip Girl and I ate it up!

it’s a fast paced YA thriller (w/ kinda dark academia vibes?) and even though the ending left a lot to be desired, I still really enjoyed the mystery elements and social commentary in this book.

Faridah has another thriller coming out soon and I can’t wait to read it too!

3.5 or 3.75 is probably my full rating.

The first half or so is VERY Gossip Girl/Pretty Little Liars, which is not really my thing. But the payoff in the latter half is more than worth it!
