I wanted to love this book, the cover is adorable, the diversity is wonderful and the premise sounds lovely but I hated the main character. I really disliked the writing style and the description of every character after chapter 2 or so being age; hair; race; clothes was uncomfortable at first and became an ick later. The main character doesn't even solve the mystery like she thinks she does, her friends do. I can't decide if it's a 2 or 2.5. Structure is fine, but the writing isn't and I don't think a second book will fix that.
Moderate: Car accident, Kidnapping, and Violence
Minor: Gun violence
