So this was a really fun and entertaining book to read. I devoured it in basically a day. And it was hard to stop reading because I wanted to know the answers to everything. 

However, I can’t say I was surprised at anything? And ultimately, the way things are woven together at the end, if I think about things too hard, I feel like the plot will unravel. But I was honestly so entertained I don’t really care too much. 

Was this a masterpiece? No. Was it a good source of entertainment for a day and a half! Definitely yes. 

I will say, though, if you don’t like unlikable characters, this probably isn’t for you. Also, this was really different than I thought it’d be. This is definitely a high society thriller/drama, social media influencers and class discussions included. I don’t usually like reading about rich influencers, but this worked for me.
