This rating and review is on the audiobook. The narrators were good, though some sound fairly similar or as if they were the male voice of Pip's narrator. There were parts where the writing was odd, unrealistic that it made me cringe out loud. The mystery was definitely enticing with an ending that was not expected.

This book is very YA in that there are inappropriate age gap relationships all over the place, wild child logic, and fairly predictable plot points. I didn't guess the final two twists ahead of time so I'll give the book credit for that. It made me chuckle a few times, and I felt genuinely sad for characters many times.

Just when you think you’ve got it solved, scratch it out and realize youve got it all wrong. This was so well written! I tried to come to my own conclusions and making my own suspect list alongside Pips and I still got the ending wrong! I found myself stuck to this book

I first watched the TV show (which spurred me to then read the book) and this was no disappointment! I liked it a lot and I enjoyed the notable differences and added depth that came with the book!
