It had suspense, and some shocking twists that I didn’t expect. I was interested and wanted to keep listening to the audiobook. I really liked how interconnected the characters and plot were, and how McManus tied them all together. I wouldn’t say that it was quite as good the “one of us is lying” series, but it was still very good. The ending was a little ambiguous, and it leaves an opportunity for a sequel, so maybe there will be one. I would read it if there was a sequel.
Age rating: 14+
Moderate: Adult/minor relationship, Child death, Drug use, Murder, and Death
Minor: Cursing
Maybe 13-14+. There isn’t any sexual content, but there are some heavier relational topics, as well as drug related plot.janetsu's review against another edition

Overall I don’t have much to say about it except that it was very meh. If you really like everything else she’s written then maybe you’ll like this too, but it’s definitely geared towards a teen audience in my opinion.

Interesting mystery and plot idea, but I didn't like any of the characters enough to really connect with it. Minor plot holes. Characters made bad/ ill thought-out decisions throughout, but I'm not convinced they showed any development.
Pacing towards the end was a bit odd and left me feeling unsatisfied.
I did enjoy parts of the book, and the plot was strong enough that it was an overall enjoyable and quick read, but ultimately the characters didn't feel realistic or compelling enough for me to really connect with the story.
