Overall I enjoyed this book, I thought it had a mystery that kept you guessing (though I did guess 80% of the solution including that
Chloe was the one who hurt teagan
). The characters were deeply unlikeable at times, especially Jake, but I think it made it all the more realistic. Everyone reacted like teenagers actually would. The twists were surprising but not so much that they were unbelievable. Things were set up really well, it wasn't like things just came out of nowhere. I also couldn't put this book down, but the rating is a bit on the lower side because I rate based on intuition.
