I'm surprised with how much I've been enjoying this series considering it's aimed at a younger audience.
I'm so happy that the writer finally decided to show us Wendell's story and how he died, was waiting for this backstory.
I liked seeing Marjorie's and Eliza's relationship develop even though Eliza got on my nerves sometimes, it reflects a real teenage relationship and you could see the insecurity Eliza felt. I liked the addition of the other girls to show a different side of Marjorie, more like a traditional teenage girl who doesn't have the weight of the world on her shoulders.
Also enjoyed how the 'villain' of the story was multifaceted.
