my poor guy jack ugh that was brutal to listen to

maybe perhaps listening to the audiobook is better than reading it as a physical copy? the first book took me a fat minute to get through and this baddie was devoured over four days 

i look forward to see with what happens to that CRIMINAL that did that thing ugh what a fucking a hole boo the crowd boos get off the stage get in a jail cell

AMAZING!!!! i loved this sooo much 

at Sal and Andi's memorial pips friends Brother Jamie is acting strange, later this night he disappears. Pip this time around has time to contend with unlike before aas she begins to reveal what has happened to Jamie.

through her research she realises Jamie and other men his age were talking to a catfish known as Layla Mead, having slipped up pip works out she is after Child Brunswick - - a child who helped his father murder teens. Having grown up and now with a new identity he has been difficult to track down but LM was determined to seek revenge for the last victim having been their sister. pip works out Stanley Forbes must be CB but so has LM who is really Charlie Green. pip pleades but it is no use, CG shot SF 6 times and sets the building on fire. pip struggles and attempts to save stanley but it is no use. this shakes pip and her beliefs but feels the need to provide him with a proper burial regardless of what the town people thought of him

loved this book almost as much as the first well done Holly Jackson

Copied from another app - Love it same as the first one I had no idea what turn it was going to take but it all made sense had my almost crying multiple times in the book 

Upon reflection this book is better than the first one for me

i really like how holly jackson incorporates heavy but important topics into her ya novels. that she actually shows the reader how fragile pip‘s mental state has gotten because of her two missions. she doesn’t depict her as this supernatural teenager but as someone who has to learn to cope with the trauma she went through.

Excellent, fast paced thriller. Raises some interesting moral questions and has strong character development. It's teen fiction but adults can enjoy it too
