I read this book for reading olympics and I really enjoyed it. It was one of my quicker reads recently and I found it enjoyable. Some of the mysteries the reader was given the clues to figure out themselves while other secrets you have to read to the end to find out. It had a good message and the three main characters went through incredible development  in their relationships with themselves and each other.

A bit corny but a good, fast read. A tad predictable, but has some pretty satisfying twists as well. 


Anybody names Anders is automatically a bad dude- I don’t make the rules 🤷🏻‍♀️

Its not bad… but not particularly that interesting to me… i found it to be rather boring and draggy, except when eventually the story came together and secrets were unfolded, the concept was really good. But the book itself was draggy and a slow for me… didn’t find it captivating for me.
