Excellent read, crossing the lines of justice versus right. Deep, invested character development.

I thought this was beautifully written and had some banger one-liners. It was a mystery/thriller, but then at many times, so much more than that and really about a beautiful friendship. 

My only critiques are that I thought there were parts that could have been cut out or shortened and then other areas where I wish we had gotten more details. I also thought charlotte’s dialogue was way too mature for her age, and it took me out a few times. 

I LOVE NORMA AND SAINT. I cried at anything pertaining to their relationship
