- C: by now you know the main characters quite well, i still get confused with te side characters though. i coulnd't describe them in more than two sentences if i had to & when charlie green turned out to be the catfish i was trying to figure out who his is during the whole chapter...
- P: it definitely didn't go where i thought it would, but over all i found it a bit wired. the whole child brunswick thing was super interesting and gave a cool twist, but the way it played out... idk. i was definitely expecting something different
- L: i don't know with these murder mysteries... there are always thing that don't make that much sense to me. the whole layla meads thing, how did she get in contact with all possible child bronswicks over tinder or instagram..? hwo did nobody notice that she used pictures of some student, i thought kilton was a small town. why did stanley keep jamey in his bathroom for seven days??? like whaat? like i get he was scared but whaaat?
- E: it was entertaining, would i listen to it again? no.

We are not our parents and I don't think a ten year old child would understand what his father was doing and what he was helping his father with. It was really sad when he died, I really wanted him to survive. Although I also feel for Charlie murdering a person is not the solution. Stanley was living a life without hurting people so I think that him murdering Stanley was not justified. I don't know I hope he is found and charged. Also I hope Max gets killed in the next book.

The character development, especially regarding
The evolution of Holly Jackson's writing in this sequel impressed me, and the anticipation for the third book is palpable. While the ending was a bitter pill to swallow, it speaks to the author's ability to evoke deep emotions. A break from the intense feelings might be necessary, but the prospect of what the next installment holds is equally compelling.
