I enjoyed this book a lot more than I thought I would. The last book I read by this author was a little disappointing, but this book was really good. The story was paced really well, which I think can be hard to do in a mystery. Sometimes I’m left feeling like the conclusion came together too fast, but I did not feel that with this book. The characters are pretty interesting. They probably won’t stick with me forever, but they were likable and pretty well developed. I felt like each of them existed as individuals as well as a part of the group, which I loved. The only thing I didn’t love was one of Cal’s storylines.

I would love nothing more than for writers to stop writing relationships between students and teachers. Also, the fact that nothing really happens to her is really upsetting

Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by this book, and I would recommend it for fans of mysteries.

One of the author's best works to date! The main three characters are all so lovable and I found myself actually caring about their relationships. Furthermore, the mystery had me enthralled - I couldn't wait to uncover everybody's secrets. For me, the pacing was near perfect, though I would have liked more development for some of the characters to make the ending more believable.
