Did I find the characters likable? No. Did I enjoy the story? Absolutely. I was constantly on the edge of my seat wondering what would happen next. And then the letter came out and I was left questioning everything. Tbh here’s my conclusion:

Verity did kill Harper but also Jeremy already knew and did attempt to kill her twice. There are just too many things that don’t make sense if Verity were actually a sane person. What happened to Crew’s chin? Why was he so scared to tell Lowen what happened that he actually bit into a knife? If she had enough time to tell Crew to hold his breath why didn’t she say it loud enough for Harper as well? How did she even have time to tell him to hold his breath if it was all so sudden? I also think that Jeremy knew bc it would explain why he seemed so angry with her, Lowen assumed it was bc he thought Verity crashed on purpose but I think it’s bc he knew what she did. It would also explain why he was always listing how Verity staying with them would benefit Crew but never said anything about how HE wants her to stay. Anyways those are my takes on the book I feel like if Lowen really wants to know the truth she just has to ask Amanda if she recommended antagonistic journaling to Verity and if she says yes well then you just murdered an innocent woman.
