Is this a YA thriller? It seems to carry some themes that I wouldn't consider YA. However, it was a fun book. I neither hate nor love it.

Our main character, Monica, can be a bit dislikable. I really enjoyed Ginny.

I was really into this book at first because it was kind of like another Pretty Little Liars type of thing. (Show, not the books!)

It started off really strong because it was one of my anticipated reads, but after about 5-10 chapters I started losing interest and it ended up not being for me at all. I don’t think young adult mystery thrillers are my taste since that’s the third one I did not really like.

This was a library ebook. This was a DNF.

Another YA thriller of high school kids trying to solve an unsolved murder when seasoned detectives or police couldn’t even be much of a help to begin with. Thought I am a sucker for them

The build up of this book was excellent but the development of the events at the end wasn't my favorite. I have to say I think I expected a little bit more of what I got.
