My fav book of the series, it jumped right up to my top favs.
This book was such a roller coaster of emotions. I even ended up crying in the middle.

omg this book is so intense, I would have never guessed that Jason bell was the killer and when pip killed him I was so shook. This is definitely the best book in the series, it’s dark, intense and definitely most like a true crime. But I’m very mad about Ravi and Pip breaking up at the end.

but that’s where my complaints end, it’s a wonderful book definitely recommend.
