I listened to the audiobook and it was kind of boring 🤷🏼‍♀️. It didn’t really leave much of an impression, and not much really happened after their ‘big secrets’ were revealed pretty early on. It’s not like they were doing much themselves to figure out what happened either, just stupid relationship drama and getting their lawyers to deal with stuff. If I was actually reading it instead of listening at x2 speed in the car I probably wouldn’t have finished it. Don’t think I really care enough to read the rest of the series, even though it wasn’t necessarily bad.

The perfect ending. I predicted who was going to be the suspect, but it was conveyed really well.

Y'ALL I'M OFFICIALLY OBSESSED-
I loved this book so much. it kept me entertained from start to finish. I'm completely obsessed with Nate and Bronwyn, and I also really like Cooper and although I didn't really like Addy in the beginning (because her entire personality revolved around her boyfriend), she had amazing character development by the second half of the book and became a badass.

I was trying really hard not to get attached to any of the characters for obvious reasons but it was inevitable to me.

I was constantly changing my opinion on my suspicions and I was sooo scared that I wouldn't like the ending because I was having so much fun with this book, but I actually liked the ending, it was satisfying to me.

can I just say, again, that I absolutely love Nate and Bronwyn? yeah, cause I was obsessed with them. 😩❤️

I can't wait to read the second book.
