mysterious relaxing fast-paced

3.5

A cute little story that really sets up the character of Pip. 

Even though I assumed nothing scary would happen, Holly Jackson managed to make me feel like I was in a thriller, rather than a murder mystery game.

It felt so real, I was invested until the very end, the ending was so unexpected.

I was not expecting all of that, and then it's just "you're wrong" (we all know she was right)
