I only knocked off some points when rating this only bc some things about what unfolded in this book made me feel a little icky 😅
Overall it was very well done, the weaving of each character's telling of the story from their pov was very well timed and laid out perfectly. Lots of twists. I added the content warnings but most of them aren't explicitly described, just mentioned or alluded to. This book wasn't graphic, save for a couple dark moments necessary to the plot. But I was hooked from the beginning! And the main character was very smart about what to do so it made the book that much more exciting.
