brighta's review against another edition

3.75

i really like these types of books but i think a little more hints of who the killer is would have been better.

when you find out it’s like well duh but i did like the fact that Omar was involved cuz that part made it more shocking.

the book was pretty fast paced and i liked that cuz it like constantly keeps you in your toes while reading. i definitely did not enjoy the ending though.

the massive cliffhanger bugs me and i hate when books do that.
