4.75 in terms of plot and whatnot but a full 5 for how much of a good time I had. This is some good kush. Reminds me of being a teenager again.

Okay so I unabashedly loved this. Yes, it was predictable and yeah, I figured out most of the clues and twists before they happened, but also? Just a fun read I couldn’t wait to pick up every evening.

This book is old money, it’s rags to to riches, it’s a non frustrating love triangle, it’s will they/won’t they, it’s twists and tricks and puzzles, it’s a guessing game, it’s strategic, it’s un-put-down-able. It’s a need to read for any YA mystery lover.
