I read this so quickly lmao. idk but there were too many plotlines being added but not a very good execution/conclusion to all of it. it had potential and I wanted to know more but the way it was executed wasn't very good for me idk. the pacing was so slow too. the stuff that happened to the missing girls and the backstories of the characters were SO repeatedly mentioned imo. like, I do not need a reminder of malcolm being in declan's shadow, ellery's thoughts abt her mother and sarah, and recounts/theories abt what happened to lacey every two sentences. but, I did kinda like the mysteries, I just wish they had been better solved and discussed. the last sentence added a lot of surprise(?) gasps maybe, and thoughts. that was a good and chilling closer for the book.

so boring. se siente como esos libros pretensiosos de wattpad. los personajes no tienen ni una gracia, y cuando piensas que se va a poner bueno, no lo hace

I absolutely loved this book. I was making theories every five second

and when I discovered that the murderer was Peter I felt sick to my stomach. What a plot twist!

I absolutely adore the characters and love how there lives and family’s aren’t perfect! Absolutely devastated that the book is finished.
