This was a really good book. It hooked me from start to finish and it kept me on my toes. The plot twist truly got me, but then again, I’m not great at guessing plot twists.

The development of Pip and Ravi’s relationship 🥹🥹🥹. So cute.

very predictable as was the first one. at least we got to see a little more of pippa's personality. it was a fun read but that's basically it. im not sure why everyone keeps saying there are a lot of plot twists because there really isnt. also PLEASE PLEASE stop with the pop culture references, its embarrassing.

bestie put pip through the mf RINGER in this one and i’m not sure i’ll ever emotionally recover. incredibly well-written + well-paced, can’t wait to read as good as dead even faster than i did the first two.

Originally I was going to give this 4 stars, but the ending really caught me off guard! I loved how parts of the first book weaved through this one while it also still stood apart as it’s own mystery. I cannot wait to get my hands on the third book!
