The backwards thing was really confusing and I could not keep up
This book had its merit and I enjoyed how I didn’t understand what was going on/ it constantly tricked me. I liked the reverse chronological order of events but idk just wasn’t my favorite.

İlginç bir romandı bir yere kadar okuduklarım karışıyormuş gibi gelse de hikaye kendisini toparlamayı başardı ve merakla okumaya devam ettim. Geriya saran hikayelerden genelde hoşlanmam ama hikayenin aksiyon havasına sahip olması ve merak unsurunu hep barındırması güzeldi.
For a teen read this book had lots of twists and turns and murder. I dug it. The story is kind of like the movie, Memento, it humps around in time, but mostly it moves backward, towards the truth. Jule is a chameleon, she can be whoever you need her to be and she's strong and smart. Imogen is a spoiled heiress who never questions anything. Together they have an unusual friendship, one that makes more and more sense as the story progresses. It's a story of deception, entitlement, smarts, money, lies, and eventually... the truth. The audiobook was a solid listen. A good follow up novel from the teen author of the smash bestseller, We Were Liars.
I had low to no expectations for this book, yet somehow I was still disappointed.

I think this is more of a 3.5 stars. I didn't like it as much as We Were Liars, although I know it's stupid to compare the two as they're completely different. It took me a while to get used to the writing style and how it was presented. There were also parts that I wanted more clarification on because I had to reread a few parts to get a decent understanding. It was a gripping book, I read it so quickly, but I just didn't love it. What I did really like though was the anti-hero element. I'd like to read this again but read it backwards so it might make more sense in the parts that confused me. I liked that it was a different writing style but it's just something I had to get used to and adapt to.
