I would also say, regardless of my higher expectations, that this story fell flat for me. I wasn’t invested in the characters, half of the characters were self sabotaging (which doesn’t make for a fun read), and I didn’t feel that there was much at stake for Avery. The tropes in this story felt forced as well, as though the author was trying to mark off a checklist before publishing.
I honestly think that this book could have been improved if the protagonist(s) of this story were aged up a little, around college age instead of high school age. The teenage angst sours their personalities, and in turn sours the plot. Not to mention that the first hundred or so pages are not relevant to the story. Everything within those pages are red herrings, which would be fine if there was any ‘meat to chew on’ in between the fallacies
