Having read and loved Willingham's two previous novels, I was excited to listen to the audio version of this one. Now I'm feeling mixed emotions, with equal parts love and disappointment. The first part of the book is rather monotonous and boring introducing characters that weren't very likable and giving a lot of background information that seemed to be just filler. Thankfully, the last part has some unexpected clever twists and suspense, actually redeeming the book in my eyes. Does it compare with the authors' previous books....not really, but I still think it's worth a read. My thanks to the publisher for providing an audio version to review via NetGalley. All opinions are my own.

Besties from very young, Margot and Eliza were inseparable. That is, until the day Levi moved in next door. Eliza and Levi became a thing..more of a thing than Margot and Eliza. Margot felt Levi was dangerous, not only to their friendship but to Eliza, as well. And in a shocking turn of events, Margot is right. 
When Margot starts college at the school she and Eliza were scheduled to begin together, she struggles to fit in, until attention seeking Lucy asks her to move in with her and her roomies for the second semester. They live in off campus housing next to the crazy Kappa Nu house, who they pay crazy cheap rent to. Things seem to go great until they don’t and Margot feels confusion and gaslighting at every turn, never knowing who to trust, always feeling danger lurks around the corner. 
Some interesting twists.
