Review: This was SO. MUCH. FUN. I've heard the audio is absolutely fantastic, although I read it via ebook - and honestly? It might even be worth a re-read via audio, that's how much I enjoyed it! I was genuinely surprised multiple times throughout the book, and I loved the way it played with how we view those around us, and how that interpretation can change depending on other information we're given. And Lucy's grandmother? LOVED HER. I will definitely be on the lookout for more thriller/mystery books from Amy Tintera!

I surprisingly really liked this. The dialogue was pretty natural & while I was pretty sure who the murderer was the story kept me second guessing myself.

A fun read. The podcast segments were enjoyable. Felt very Only Murders in the Building 🤝 Serial. 

it didn't take too long for me to figure out who killed Savvy, but it was still enjoyable and fun to see all the pieces come together. Guess I enjoy a good amnesia trope with my true crime.
