Didn’t feel fully into this one until I was about 75% of the way through it, but then I was hooked.

So I did quite like this book. I really did prefer the main character (Carrie) over Cadence ( from We Were Liars) because I felt like she had a stronger, more memorable character than Cadence. I really did prefer this book. I just felt like it had a better plot and cast of characters. I did enjoy seeing how the sisters were together as, seeing how I am a sister myself, it was more real then anything else I have read.
I also think though that the romance was a little odd, like not completely finished. I just didn't really feel anything. I did enjoy seeing more about why the Aunties were how they were, I just wish we could have seen why Harris or Tipper are how they are. Maybe, in the future, there could be another prequel, but maybe in Tippers POV.
Thank you for reading my short but hopefully helpful review 😊.
