4.0

Felt like reading a book from when I was 15 again, but more diverse. I truly enjoyed the story, some part were kind of predictable, allowing for some ah-ah moments but there was still some surprises and plot twist and that, until the very end of the book. 
Made me think of pretty little liars, 13 reasons why and the game life is strange. 

I was hooked so i read it in 4 days!
